long lunches
Ahh, this time of year is always fun working in a big company. Everyone wants to have Christmas lunches!
Today, myself and the three colleagues who work in adjacent sales teams doing the same role as me went out for lunch. The four of us were pioneers for the merging of the mobile data and fixed data roles, so we’ve become pretty good mates through it all, and so it was tops to go out and have lunch together. We headed for Bankstown, and went to Summerland Family Restaurant - a fairly huge Lebanese restaurant. We ordered the banquet, and then out came heaps and heaps and heaps of food. But gosh it was good. Reasonably priced too. But happily, today is the only lunch for the rest of the week I had to pay for ;)
Tomorrow is off to Wagamama for lunch with all the Sydney-based technical sales people in Telstra. Should be great fun. And then Friday, the two Parramatta sales teams decided they wanted to go out for their own team lunch… cos the Parra guys generally enjoy being quite separate from the city sales people :) So score for me, that means another corporate Amex lunch!
And then I won’t eat all weekend.
And other things making me happy include a few pretty reasonable data sales that have meant I’m very likely to hit my sales target by the end of the week. That will mean the last days of December will be even more relaxed!
