Commute #5: Evening light


OK, so I'm cheating on the last one. This was taken in Chicago from the John Hancock building just as the sun was setting on a cold winter's day. My blog, my rules.


An interesting week. Several of the team have been in Texas this week running to ground some pretty interesting opportunities to lead an initiative to create some standards in our fledgling industry. Oh, and to try and get some deals done to help drive the quarter as well! Only one month to go and as always this one will go down to the wire. Anyway, sounds like we made some good progress but it's clear we've started something that may be bigger than the company is really set up to handle just now. The next few weeks will be very interesting as we strive to stay in the saddle and steer this one into the stable. Still, this is a nice problem to have, although we are going to have to figure out how to juggle both the short term, Q-by-Q needs of the business with these - necessarily longer term - initiatives. Anyone fancy sending us a few extra $$$s to help out???
