The day for the agents went fairly well. I had more than the usual challenges. The A/C was barely working. We had some technical issues as well as some other issues that kept the agents from putting all their training into practice. A personal problem ended up being the biggest headache. I had left my cell phone behind at the office by accident that morning. I had it out to get a phone number to call back in the USA. It had been found and left with security, so no worries (or so I thought). Trying to get it back has been a major hassle. I'm still waiting for it. No one seemed to have a clue where it went. It was like everyone got amnesia about who they got it from or who they gave it to. I'm supposed to get it back tonight. We'll see.
I had a chance to have a short conversation with a former boss in our old Illinois office; who is the director of our offices here. We'll be getting together for breakfast on Friday.
To top it all off, when I got downstairs there was no car to pick me up (not the first time for this to happen). No phone, so back up to the 12th floor I go to have someone call the hotel to get the car over here. The driver came zooming up to the building. I swear he was getting out of the car before it came to a complete stop and practically jumped over the trunk to open the door for me. I should have been ticked off, but I nearly laughed at the sight and let it all go. It probably wasn't his fault in any case.
I slept a little better this morning. I made it to about 11:30am. I may try to sneak a nap in later this afternoon or early evening.
I'll be trying to do a little sight-seeing before we leave. Saturday morning will be here before I know it.
