My immediate boss said a $500k contract is on the verge of being signed and the major resource (person) to work on it is me.

His boss, our manager, says I’m currently not meeting my(?) billability target. So, do I a) beat the bushes for some billable work and say I’m not available for the big contract b) send him that quote from Rhett Butler in Gone with the Wind c) roll my eyes and say “whatever” d) ask him if that was a rhetorical email e) retire and say enough of this nonsense or f) none of the above?

(?) - I was handed a sheet of paper with my billability percentage target. That is a decree from on high.
