Go Get Me That!

I'm getting to a point where I know enough about a little to be able to accomplish some tasks on the job without asking what I need to do. One thing I do know is that when I ask a client for something, they are supposed to get it for me.

On Thursday, I asked a client to pull something for me. She points across the room and says, "they're in those filing cabinets up against the wall." I think for a second, "can she say that to me? Isn't she supposed to go get that?"

Well, yeah, she is. Not me. I told her, "I don't have time to be pulling files, you're going to have to get them. Thanks." I actually said it more tactfully, but that was the essence of it. It's funny how some of these people act so inconvenienced when we're working the audit, but ya know, we're just making sure the integirty of your financial statements are good so that you can keep your business going. No big deal.

Anyways, my week in Phoenix whizzed by. It was 112-114 every day. Not too bad. Really. I got home Friday at 6, drove home from the airport, swapped out some clean clothes, and headed to Vegas for the weekend. It was me niece Makenzie's second birthday, so it was fun to be a part of that.

The best part? Marc isn't taking the job in Austin, TX, so they will be staying in Vegas for awhile! I won't be spending Thanksgiving alone!!
