A Smile on a Stressful Day
My boss is off at a conference she (admittedly) should not have agreed to attend. This is leaving me and our associate running around to handle earnings - our busy season. Luckily, we only had two so far, but one is the biggest stock in our sector - and the stock was down 6%+ today on the news - which is a big deal. The other is an "unloved" stock that I can finally upgrade because results were good... So, both notes are really important and have to get published ASAP. I'm sitting here at 10pm with at least an hour of work ahead of me. AND, I have to get up at 5am because my boss is only available until 5:30am, because that's when she leaves for the airport.
ANYWAY, in the course of our IM conversation today, she mentioned that she had gotten positive feedback from industry folks that had attended my speech in FL a few weeks ago. (editted, obviously, IM below). YEAH ME!!!!
BOSS (6:35:33 PM): I meant to tell you that and to tell you that XXX and XXX said you did a GREAT job at the Florida forum
BOSS (6:35:47 PM): so now you can leave with a smile
XXXHeike (6:35:54 PM): oh good - i didn't hear a peep from anyone after my panel.
XXXHeike (6:36:00 PM): yes indeed - :-)
BOSS (6:36:13 PM): XXX really raved about how well you did
