Everybody is workin' for the Weekend

Including me. So far my day has consisted of a phone call to the Netherlands and trying to understand the Dutch accented English of Mr. Maurik. Then a phone call to Peru where my fragmented Spanish didn't seem to iron out the details of a turbine project and finally a email I received from a guy in Greece which read "I am 3 wind turbines" in response to my question of "Which size of turbine do you need?"

Sometimes I really wish we could all speak in binary.

Mid Afternoon Data Entry Blues

After I eat my lunch today I have an afternoon chock full busy of work. For my job that means I'm going to take numbers from clients electric bills enter them into my work computer program. Then I'm going to go over wind charts for various locals around the globe and enter those as well. Then I will see which turbine matches the production needs vs budget constraints and make my recommendation. At which point the client will look at the price tag, balk and decide to wait.

Sigh.
