Time out

Wow, two weeks without a blog. You'd think it was Lent or something. As usual my activities haven't left me with the time or energy to think about putting up a new blog or two. My goal today to to do several posts over the weekend to touch on some of my experiences during this period. To begin here's a photo of the clock I received for 20 years of service recognition at my place of employment. Every few months our office has an "all-associates meeting" where the office manager goes over our financials, status of major projects and proposals and employee recognitions one of which are five year milestones. As is the tradition over the last few years when presented with our certificate and clock we are asked what project we logged our first billable hour. Heck, I couldn't be sure. In those days there were about 10 graphic designers and a lot of projects in an office that had 4 times the staff as we do today. So I rely on one of the major projects of that time which I also used at my fifteen year recognition and the presentation moves on. It's a nice looking clock and now resides at the office with the certificate. All in all it's a good place to work, lots of friendly people in a great location. If all continues well I expect when the day comes I'll retire from there.
