After being a bit of a Grumpy Gus for the last week or so, today's events were a fantastic change of pace. Today was the first big event at the new job that was completely left up to me. I worked with others of course but it was my responsibility to make us look good in front of this high-level visitor. And (even though I do say so myself) I nailed it! I was worried because I'm not so good at the making small talk thing, especially with new, much more important people than me. But it helped that our visitor was sweet as can be and she was very interested in all the things she was learning.
Every meeting, tech accessory, and even lunch, where I was able to take back my awesome front-row parking spot when I returned to the office instead of having to park in Siberia, went completely smoothly. After something goes so well, it's funny to look back and wonder what the heck you were worried about in the first place. I assume I'll most likely be just as nervous the next time we have a visitor, but one can hope those nerves and anticipation, creates another flawless performance!
