So I was brought on board at my current company to win a certain piece of Government work. I spent about 20 months working on it almost exclusively. We submitted our proposal earlier this year and have been sitting on our hands with our fingers crossed ever since.

Got the announcement today. It's a win. There is a spontaneous party going on in the hall outside my office and I'm the hero today.

Guess I won't get fired this week. 🇨🇮

Nah, I do defense work. That cone has a bulls eye on it these days. Especially if sequestration happens. In which case, I will lose my job.

Even though my job has everything to do with saving the Gov't money and making them operate more efficiently. *shrug*

Great job and congrats. I would celebrate tonight by smoking that UC pig if you still have it left.

I'll give you another one so you don't have to hold on to it.

Jack-- They DO waste it all the time, which is why I work to try to keep them from doing that.

Pro-- I'm still holding it. I think I'm going to break into my SnS kit prematurely tonight and grab something out of there. I had great news but the wife is having a terrible day. I don't want to be all "Shut up woman! Don't you know what I'm smoking??!!" When she tells me about it. 😂
