    Man, what a week this was.....
    Shot my whole weekend last, spending 8 hour days Saturday and Sunday working on quoting out a really big job. Then the changes started..... "Well, what would it cost if we did this or we changed that"..... More price crunching.....:sosp: "Well, that's too much, what would it cost if we cut the project in half"..... More price crunching......:incazzato:

    Meanwhile..... Another big customer enters the picture....... "Are you busy right now"..... Ah yeah.... I'm working on pricing out a big job that keeps changing...... "Well stop what your doing and get over here right now, we need you in a meeting"..... OK, I need a break, I'll be there in 30 minutes......

    I won't name the company that wanted me in the meeting, but it's the very same company that has these angles with real wings that walk up and down runways with hardly a stitch of clothes on. HaHa.... Like I said I needed a break....

    It's these girls....:arf:

    Well, to make a long story short..... I got "BOTH" jobs..... :D
    Yeah, some week......

    Oh yeah, I took the MINI for a short spin after work..... Just to celebrate....:D


    Edit..... Oh yeah..... I like my job......:drool
