My manager put me in charge of a $600,000 contract awarded to our lab/development group, and is gonna grade me on how well I stick to the budget and schedule I had to generate for him. D: (and the gov't wants to see my results...) Apparently that's how all the 'real' (job-coded with associated pay grade) managers are graded, so he's training me

Sounds like it's a pretty high risk situation, but I'm sure you'll go above and beyond for your clients. You always do. Just don't pysche yourself out!

Even though I have the more bland version of your car, I have to admit I'm still having fun driving it even 4 months in.

[celestianna]

I'll try to work as hard as you do!! :D Glad to hear that you're still enjoying your new car; it's a good one! ^o^

[outatime82]

Ha! I'm sure you work harder than I do ;) You will not believe what I just did to my new car...I'm so mad at myself :X

[dyxlisa]

You can do it!!! We're behind you all the way! And I'd rather have a car than a boyfriend haha XD Take up less time~~

But holy crap, 8 hour video conference D=

[celestianna]

Ahah I think you'll have something other than a car as significant other, but I KNOW YOU FEEL THE SAME AS I DO ABOUT BOYFRIENDS AKAKAKA~~~~ ♥ Eight hours of powerpoint slides and discussion wouldn't have been so bad if it didn't start at 6AM. ;o;

Good luck on the new opportunity! I'm sure you'll do well! =D

I totally agree with you. My "baby" cheers me up every day even after 2 and a half years. The novalty has not worn off. She may be high maintenace but absolutely worth it! XD

yayaya now jen can feel how i feel lol it's not that bad really for the fact that all the peeps u tele-conference with are in the states...i had to do 3am conferences since i'm in asia now lol and still go to work at 7am rofl but yea you'll get used to it and it's not THAT bad. your first time might be smooth or rough depending on the guy/lady above u but if all goes well, it's actually a very good learning experience. don't take it as a omg i gotta score thing...just too much pressure, just go and have fun. you'll do better when you're having fun anyway ;)

[celestianna]

I'll do 3am conferences when my salary reflects that kind of work!

[zephyros18]

lol....forgot...in the states u can sue the company for any reason from overworked to no toilet rolls lol
