So ... minor, but still gratifying.
Seriously, we have to savor these moments as being too few and far between.
No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

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

Thank you everyone. Objectively I can see that I'm successful, but at the end of the day I still see the guy with a couple of theater degrees responsible for a lot of peoples lives, and interacting with a a lot of very business minded people. I spend more time behind a spreadsheet that I do behind sound equipment lately and it's easy for that to overwhelm me.

ND, you've made a success of a business - expanded, hiring people to work for you, from what I've seen managing it well and humanely for those people. You're no imposter.

Punishingly Intricate
That's great, Epic!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
So not an imposter. Any of you.
I can't even get my Purchasing department to tell me that more than half of the 269 vehicles scheduled to be delivered in April have been pushed back to May by the manufacturer. I had to find out from the client who was told by the dealer. It has been a shitstorm since about 5 pm yesterday. My VP is livid that we and customer service were not informed of this major issue.

Epic, they is wonderful! Go you!
Maria, that sucks.
ltc napped for nearly 3 hours today! We're both cranky and tired today.

Maria, we have a new communications person who sends out news releases, but only lets one other person know - he puts the text up on a secondary website we have. As a result, when someone calls or emails about the content, they get a big "huh?" ... which makes us look SO good. And nothing will persuade her that sharing the info with staff just might be a good idea.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Epic, Zen, and Toddson, validation is pretty damn amazing. Pay boost is amazing-er. You've all earned it. Some of the rest of us have, too, just have to do our own back-patting, or ask for it here.

Friday afternoon imposter syndrome meeting - I just got invited to a Project Controls Summit along with about 12 other people. I am one of the two lowest level people to get invited. My BOSS isn't even invited. Ummmmmmm. I have two weeks before the two day meeting to stress over this. Fun.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Yes, Zen! That's awesome.
Epic, congrats on a well-earned raise.
Glad you got some deserved kudos, Toddson.
You guys, I am feeling down on all fronts. PMS is playing a role, I'm sure, but damn. No jobs for my company. Met a cute guy at a conference, he's already dating someone, I invited him to a group outing and he hasn't even responded. I'm getting my ass handed to me on fb for daring to call out a meme as transphobic (not on my page - I posted it to see if I was really out of line).
I'm trying to do a couple more bids today, but I've got Justified on and I can't focus. I should turn off it off and put on some music, but I'm having a hard time caring.
