Grinding

Doing 10-12 hour days at the moment. We're gearing up for the year end freeze, trying to integrate the two banks together, and fighting a whole bunch of fires all at the same time.

We ended up having to work through the weekend. I only had to do some writing and get on a couple of calls; but a couple of my guys pulled doubles all weekend.

The good news is, we've been given the go ahead to do what we've been trying to get done for... oh, three years now... and push aside the politics and people who've been in the way. I actually get to save the company all that money I've been trying to save for so long.

Also, I know we've all been put in for exceptional service awards; which means a little extra bonus, and a few extra days off.

Still, it's a grind.
