07/25/2007: "The Things We Do For A Buck"
My meeting is getting very dull, so I thought this would be a good time for a blog entry. We're on Day 2 of a three-day partners meeting here in Seattle (technically, Tukwila), Washington. There are folks from a dozen different Boeing sites, all of whom already use (about half of the people) or will eventually use (the other half, including me) the software we're discussing. I'm in a unique position, in that we just - and I mean just - rolled into production using the main competitor to this particular software package. Unfortunately, corporate policy being what it is, we've been ordered to make the change sometime in the next three years. So while I'm up to my hips making the current software work, I now have to spend a significant amount of time looking at its replacement. It's a lot like trying to learn two different foreign languages simultaneously - and you keep mixing the two up!
On the bright side, the girl at the table in front of me keeps showing off her pink thong - whether accidental or deliberate remains to be seen ... 
.... please keep a hint of "class" about any photos that go up tomorrow !
