I never made it to Andover. The work, nonetheless still required doing. I worked 12-hours on Saturday, 13-hours on Sunday, and 14-hours on Monday. I burn through my blackberry's battery once-per day, Within a day this weekend my bluetooth headset went from intermittently not working to only intermittently working. As it was a long day, I was in a near panic. I stumbled through and now have two bluetooth headsets. Not cheap ones either. The kind which will run for 6+ talk-time hours continuously.

Given what I do for a living, I never thought I'd be one of those guys.


My new Blackberry 9800 "Torch" paired with the Plantronics Voyager PRO+

The Bold was soooooooooo twenty-ten.

Interesting - and never getting to Andover and sorry for all the typical overtime I am sure they have you doing. I too never thought of myself as "one of those guys" but I guess I have to face facts as I might be "one of those guys!" LOL

The reason escapes me.

Before I knew you and saw what you do and how you use your blue tooth, I always wondered, what was up with those guys who have to be on the phone all the god-damned time. Now I know. Not really assholes. Just incredibly busy.

The ironic part is that my job requires focus, attention, and lots and lots of time.

Yes, I've often thought for all of the urgency your project managers impart about the work, they certainly cut down your productivity by keep you tied up on the phone.

Maybe that's why they manage projects, instead of people?

LOL - my battery died on mine and I about freaked out... Then I realized what the hell I was freaking out on - a blue tooth headset. Really!
