It has been an interesting day. Yesterday afternoon, a pretty sizeable sales opportunity for this month fell through and will most likely close next month now. And this morning another big one took a bit of a plunge. It sucks, cos they were things that were really out of my control; they weren’t things that could’ve been avoided on my part. So I’m wondering where my numbers for the month will come from. Also wondering how gracious my boss will be on Thursday arvo at our one-on-one meeting when I show her my numbers and it is quite clear how far up the proverbial creek I am without any sort of paddle…

Just got met with a customer with another carrier who has 1000+ sim cards in parking meters, and who uses ciruit-switched data to communicate with those parking meters. Incredibly strange, because CSD hasn’t really been used in huge amounts for about 4 years. So hunting around for what our pricing on that is, and trying to be competitive, made for a fun afternoon. It’s kinda like using dial-up internet rather than any form of broadband - except even older, and worse.

Kinda switched off work about half an hour ago… have just been procrastinating here until it’s time to head round to Debbie’s for dinner. She is cooking prawns and champignons - yum :D

Have to be here in the city at 8am tomorrow morning to take my car up to Suttons Holden in the city to get it looked at because of some recall. But there is apparently an awesome cafe just around the corner which I will enjoy sitting in for 45 minutes while they adjust what they need to adjust.
