Cog in trouble

I had been told I was supposed to show this thing working on Friday. I still am. And I will.

But meanwhile, yesterday, late in the evening, they told me I'd be going to a meeting with the client this morning (in less than an hour) to show the system working...

...

...

Say what?

...

...

Come again?

...

...

WHAT???

...

...

And the problem is that the guy who schedulled the meeting did it in such a way that he's not able to go... In fact, no other local boss is able to go!!

As a plus, I do need some more help from the guys back in Portugal to put this thing up, and they told me this *after* people back home had left (*way* late in the evening). And there's more! Today is a holiday back in Portugal, so there's no one there!!

...

So this is it... in a moment or two I shall be leaving to the client, with a girl who works here too (or worked, I don't know...)

I don't even know what I'll say...

Man...

Wish me luck :-|


Good luck!

you say "NO"!

If you aren't ready, it is detrimental to go and show your product.
