bombastic

I really shouldn't be doing this. I'm still at work and it's almost 7:30. Getting lots of shit done and I hope I'm impressing my boss. I've discovered that impressing the boss means getting favourable leads for good products which means more money for me. Not to mention the more work I do the more commission I get. Plans fell through for tonight so here I am, almost 7:30, taking a break from dealing with these customers all over the world who want to buy my $30K testing equipment. Well, most people are asking for products between $2K and $5K. But my bigger customers (who get more attention) are the $30K customers. That's an extra $450 at month's end not including bonuses for surpassing my margins.

Wow. That sounded really lame.

Anyway, they've decided to send this other guy to Calgary for the Pipeline show. There's a lot of pipes in Calgary, considering all of the oil fields there. And because of that there's lots of testing equipment that's needed. I'm expected to go all over the place for this job. Flying me out to all sorts of neat places all around the states. I'll keep people posted if I head anywhere that's close to anyone. Well, anyone not in Toronto. You can show me around. I'll take pictures. No I won't.

So I've wanted to get more piercings for the longest time. I've been considering that maybe my boss wouldn't like it since I have to eventually go to these shows. But since he's sending the other guy (who I'm going to have to teach the products to) I think I'm going to get pierced this weekend/week. They're probably going to just be lame lobe/cartilage piercings. Hey. I've gotta start somewhere. And I can't really make it too liberal, considering my boss. It's too bad that I've been so broke for so long. Now that I have a good job I can afford to get pierced but now don't have the availability.

I guess that's how it goes...

But now that everybody's gone, I'm gonna roll a J at the comfort of my own desk.
