That sounds like a really solid interview, VW. It's always cheering when they take you as a given.
Everyone's getting spanked but me.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sounds extremely promising vw!
Also, just had a chance to read your portfolio. You're really good!

So, the pastor of the church I've been semi-sporadically going to was on 60 minutes yesterday. The church was shown, mentioned by name, and mentioned as located in San Diego. I'm thinking I'm not gonna be able to get in the door next week.

Bitches, I need you to talk me down. I went to one of my project leads and told him I was going, and how much I respected his team. His response was all about how he understood that I had had a limited amount of time available and he knew I'd done the best I could to get something out of the door in a timely fashion.
Now I know, I know, that I should have, could have, done more on the book, but I feel like I left a bad impression behind me. But it wasn't my department's top priority, as indicated by the fact they handed it off to India as soon as possible.

Sounds like you did good work, and you're getting some survivors guilt for escaping, maybe.

Well, "you did the best you could under the circumstances" isn't exactly a glowing endorsement.

Is this like when your daughter got upset for getting an A minus?

Betsy, I'm guessing he probably wasn't even thinking specifically of you and your work when composing his comments, just the project and how it's been going in general for the whole team. And it sounds like he appreciated having your contribution. So I'm not seeing much of a downside for you.
