Sales guy

My sales guy went on vacation and I haven’t been this scared to go to work for a while. The embrace of 20 email and 5 messages tend to turn a person’s heart to ice in the warm summer heat. Especially when this is 9AM on a Monday morning. I am no exception.
The day is a flurry of talking to people and getting people to talk to people. Desperately trying to get a picture of who’s talking to who and who wants what and why. In the blink of an eye, my day has already gone. I did not produce anything useful. No fun program to run, no cool new understanding about computer revealed. But things moved forward a bit. Do I feel accomplished? No.
