My boss is doing his best to move me into a full time position. I'm hoping that a) this goes through, and b) this sale cements that full time.

[Phantom of The Library]

I may have...just may have set up a huge sale today.

I'm talking almost 6 figures, when my normal stuff doesn't even top out at $1k.

Congrats indeed!  Hope the deal goes through smoothly!

Out of interest, are you allowed to tell us what the client does for a living?


Personal happies:
I have been listening to Zankoku Na Tenshi No Teze (A Cruel Angel's Thesis) and Twister from TWEWY and their various remixes almost constantly.  Actually, come to think of it, my music library has become flooded with Japanese OSTs lately. I need to balance it out again.

He's a contractor, working for the US Gov't, on section 8 housing. Apparently, he's replacing a 20+ year old Xerox machine to print shitloads of brochures. That's all I know.

I love notalwaysright.

Also, sorry for hijacking the thread, guys. Carry on.

It's a pretty big happy with a pretty big paycheck. Deserves a minor derail
Hmm, happies...I don't have any at the moment, but someone must!

I wonder if you could convince them to give you a commission-in-bonus-form for sales exceeding a certain value in the future, reasoning that you've statistically made the largest sale you ever will and they therefore have nothing to lose.

Then next month you manage some sort of incredible seven digit deal and retire immediately.

I demand a 100000000% commission!

And your first born.

15 minutes until the Sunday Movie on Toonami Aftermath.
Some movie called "Galaxy Express 999"; never heard of it, but hey, free movie time.

Apparently it's something with steam trains being space ships.  Sounds neat.

Also transhumanism apparently; sounds like it could be pretty good or an absolute fail depending on execution.

[Urist Imiknorris]

You're first born son?

Yes I am.

Hmm...where have I seen that idea before...



Woohoo! One of the handful of Transformers I could afford as a kid!

I already have a first born. She's a girl, but she wanted boxing gloves and toy trucks for her birthday. ^_^

Mine wants to be Spider-Man. Oh, and she wants to be a Krispy Kreme donut for Halloween. (This is the same child who was a giant eyeball last year.)

I'm not deliberately raising her to be weird, it's just a happy coincidence.
