I have hit the wall in a big way. You know the wall, don’t you? You come in in the morning and even before you have put your stuff down (coffee, purse, laptop bag, keys, sunglasses) there’s a crisis that needs your attention. And basically, you don’t stop for the…
Tomorrow I will receive my six month “probationary” review at my company. 6 months, 26,000 miles, 14 flights,6 states, 6 site visits,4 meetings,2 countries,1 lost bag and6 paychecks (we get paid once a month). Can you guess which one is my favorite? Better the bag get lost than the paychecks…
