And I thought yesterday was annoying..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Today’s been just as bad. Not much time for blogging, I’ve got 7 work days left before I head out to Gnomedex, and my vacation afterwards, with one of those being a Microsoft Small Business Solutions Event day. That leaves me 6 days to get all of the work for the rest of this month done, all the while working with a fairly new staff person, and a brand new one that starts Monday, trying to get them up to speed on what they need to know.

Of course, this is the time that people who haven’t needed anything from me in months come crawling out of the woodwork demanding stuff that is not going to be quick and easy!

I’ll need a vacation by the time I’m done with this!
