That was a whole week of bleh
Jan. 13th, 2008 01:43 pmSo from Wednesday to Saturday was the huge global meeting thing that S at work has been planning obsessively for a month. Two hundred sales reps plus twenty managers of various sorts at the Fairmont in Santa Monica for four days. I didn't think I was going to have anything to do with it, only to have it sprung on me on Tuesday that I was actually going to be spending the rest of the week helping out there (and then sprung on me on Thursday that I was going to be there at 6:45 am on Saturday as well).
This is not altogether a bad thing- it was a change of pace, and involved lots of free food, and anyway overtime money is good. But it means that I'm working directly for S- not only that, but directly for an over-stressed, strung-tight-as-a-wire S.
( I'm saving up money to put a hit out on him. )
( And this whole bitch should probably go under a TMI-cut )
On the plus side, we had pizza, I enjoyed their company, the Due South pilot was fantastically fun and I shall ramble about it once I've finished the season. Also, I finished a book and a movie Saturday, both of which were good. More later.
