The CEO just had quite a scare. Appropriate I guess, this being Halloween and all. I learned (or more accurately, was reminded) that the CFO was going to be out of town from December 6th through the 9th. I’d been told about this several times I’m sure but I blocked it out; the CEO is quite good at blocking out unpleasant facts. My first thought when I was reminded of her travel plans? Dear God NO, not on the Holiday Ale Fest weekend! Who is going to drive me and my drunken friends home after we’ve been drinking beer all morning?

Thankfully, I discovered that the Festival is the weekend before the CFO leaves. Whew. Everything is fine again in the world of Kjel.org, and the CFO will be allowed to take her trip after all.
