Titty Tuesdays!
Got your attention innit?
Jokes. Had to scurry to work a little earlier than usual courtesy of a pre-watershed work call. Maroon shirt with the faintest of black polka dots, the finest polyester black suit I could find and a silk, super skinny black tie to complete the look. And the all saints leather trench. Looking like a Nazi officer on his bright red electric bike. Whizzed to work, found my locker keys from the day before (safely in the locker keyhole).
Lots of my American colleagues are on the wind down, with it being thanksgiving week. Which is great cause it means a bit more latitude for me to do my own thing. Which isn’t anything spectacular — making time to schedule some long-overdue technical & business training. Ah the perks.
Chaired a good few internal calls with multiple stakeholders. Spoke just enough to imprint my executive presence whilst convincingly concealing the fact that I hadn’t the faintest clue what they are on about. Great success, as Borat would say, overall.
Had a debrief session with the sales team for a huge client call on Wednesday. Have my work cut out on this one. My first ever sales pitch in forever. That too to a less than happy customer. Time for me to bring the razzmatazz.
