Dear reader, the week just passed is already a memory, but I do not know yet whether one of those that I will keep in a drawer or I will try to forget quickly.
It started with a course taught by a colleague in Milan. Too bad that the three participants, for one reason or another we were all out of phase. Some had to chase the customer's requirements, who had to finish a rush job and people like me who had to fight another night with my eyes wide open. Put
then taught in pain, the constant interruptions, it has come a day later without much glory. Luckily, the dentist gave me an appointment for the evening is cheerful and magnanimous, so that his good humor a bit 'I still stuck on him. The
evening, back home, preparing stock and barrel because the meeting is scheduled Tuesday at 9:00.
birth early Tuesday, my colleague on hiatus. It is home sick. From late October to now it has never happened that we were both well. That gets a little 'concern.
The journey, however, is quiet and the landscape offers picture-postcard views.
Arrive on time, even a little 'ahead, and so I find that it was decided that I should not attend the meeting, which among other things I asked myself, but I prepare for the meeting in the afternoon, as my colleague is absent.
I take this opportunity to get a bit 'of work to catch up.
The meeting of the afternoon a video conference with Turkey. The beginning I already had to understand that it was better to mark the visit. There's a lot of people, but only the Turks greet me, and for as long as we deal mostly with myself, even if the meeting there are about twenty people working on different things. Items unmark are many, so much so that during the discussion already thrown the basis for another meeting. I had taken even half appointment for a visit to a winery there, but skips. When the meeting ends in the office there's only me and my contact person. Arrived in residence
eat a quick meal and go to bed, and incredible, I sleep all in one breath.
Wednesday thousand plans for the evening that crashing when I find a meeting that is the daughter of the one that did not attend Tuesday. When we discover that this is a month to discuss the data that changes from time to time by the user without prior notice. And then someone wonders why nothing works ...
meeting again Thursday, where the head of another group tries to shift the blame to some mistakes on me, but then I can prove that the error is theirs, just unfortunate that they remember you are up with an excuse and have gone away. Since then facts have always denied.
This is the week when many companies are organizing the Christmas dinners, as well as my company did. Too bad I end later that the desire to get in the car, go to dinner and then redo the way back the next day. Some colleagues, who like me are doing later ask me what plans I have for the evening. I say nothing. Dinner and bed. So I get invited to go to dinner with them.
agree.
Unfortunately when we arrived to discover he had forgotten his wallet. The dinner also is not anything memorable, indeed only the income and the company are worthy of being reported. The company is happy, celebrating like a bachelorette party of a colleague, who next week will repeat the experience of saying yes, but to another man. And the bill, more savory meat marinade in the room served as an appetizer. But what to do. Luckily when paying someone to find him and so pockets magnanimous a debt, which I plan to pay the next day.
Back at the parking lot where I parked the car, the meeting covered in ice, as if it had been attacked by Mr. Freeze. It's too cold to wait for defrosting of everything, so I try to start the same, but made 4 meters turn back and put me on hold.
runs Friday waiting for someone responds to my thousand requests before the umpteenth meeting, where several times I am asked what I think of returning to Turkey for another session of closures. To which I Nicchio, trying to download the decision on who is not there and then I can not say too much. Turkey
Finished with your call here Luxembourg.
There I discover that all users, wherever they are, whatever language they speak or profess religion in the end are all alike.
Eventually I come out again later, and race because I have friends who are waiting for me to go to a concert.
The return trip is quiet until a few miles from home in a traffic which flourished from snow impressive. It takes me half an hour to cover the last kilometer, but I'm finally home. The week is over and the only thing I want is to think of the weekend.
... chasing the sun ...
