Do they have showers at your office?

yup.

then
on a semi-serious note
Has Leica come up with and S system lens long enough for you?
a 2x extender?
or?

The 1.4x focus module from the Modular APO-Telyt-R system has been modified
to fit the S2.  Put the small head on it and it's a 400mm f/ APO.  With the
big lens head it's a 560mm f/4 APO.  Covers the entire S2 sensor. 
Supposedly the 2x focus module can be modified to fit too.
