I am sitting in front of my computer in my underwear.  I am suppose to be cleaning the apartment because Jes is coming to visit, but Jen has decided it is more important to sleep than clean.  So I will be doing it myself then heading to work for 8 hours, home for 3 and back to work for a sales meeting.  My month ends on Saturday and we are still about $25K from our goal.  As always stressful times here.  We will rock out though.  Jen is going to Florida on Sun. and then I will be a single for like 5 days.  That will be cool, I have really never been alone in this apartment for more then 24 hours.  That is all I have for now.&lt;br /&gt;- Ryan&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7899967-111227625024542766?l=thestopsign.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thestopsign.blogspot.com/feeds/111227625024542766/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7899967&amp;postID=111227625024542766' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7899967/posts/default/111227625024542766'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7899967/posts/default/111227625024542766'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thestopsign.blogspot.com/2005/03/hello-is-anyone-reading.html' title='Hello?

I had an event in the store and it went well, but you know it is all about the bottom line. My numbers suck, our stock price is in the toilet, and I left a nasty message for my CEO today(Anonymous of course) about how we are not seeing the big picture of where we are going. So, I am disenchanted with my position at the moment, and if my boss calls me again tomorrow, we are going to have some words about him laying off. I suck right now don't get me wrong, but it is never nice to hear it. Then as anyone in the business world knows there is a fine line between excuses and explanations, that is something I have to work on.
