March-ing through work

After returning home from a much needed vacation, work went something like this.  .  .  

Not sure how the Service team did it, but they completely destroyed our credibility with the California client.  Sigh.  Note to self, don't go on vacation until client has been transitioned to service!  Unfortunately, as things exploded, two other clients started up.

I was to be on site at two different continents at the same time.  That didn't work so well.  I really wanted to go to China.  Unfortunately, I was informed too late, had no visa and the cost of the ticket was only $5000 plus.  Maybe next time . . .

Three consecutive weeks were spent in bipolar Troy Michigan at the client site.  (Note to Steve, check the weather channel before coming to Michigan and pack appropriately for hot then freezing weather.)  Fortunately for me, I could drive there on Monday morning and then drive home Friday evenings.  The beginning phase is always a bit chaotic and tons of planning.  Late nights with a combo of a new school term was a recipe for disaster.  It was good to see Steve and Janell again.  It was good to meet Shirley too.  The team seems to be a decent one.  The three new additions will be fun with the storming.  I hope to be through to performing soon.

I have only 1 thought for Steve and Janell to roll their eyes.  Spring or Sparkling water?
