Boomed!

22 October 2013, 13:47

Phew!

Finally got a contract after a considerable amount of time on the bench this year. As some of you already know, Client #1 dragged their feet on a project for months and months and then went very silent.

Client #2 kept me busy for a few months this year but after all the delaying nonsense, warchest is now almost depleted.

If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.
