Ooh la la

Last October Lincoln's company decided they were closing their Boston office. At that time he had the choice of going to work for their Indianapolis office (still living in Boston but doing a LOT of traveling) or being laid off. We decided it would be a good time for him to go out on his own.

He set up his own business and immediately started busting his ass. Most people would have at least taken a day or two off to veg out or something between jobs but he immediately started contacting people and really hustling. In the past year he has been doing sub-contracting work for a number of companies while also establishing his own "small but respectable" customer base.

Today he called me and asked if I could come home a little early tonight because he has a business dinner and the man wants to take Lincoln and his wife out. Is this what the life of an executive is like? If so, I'm game!
