God is an atheist - He doesn't believe in me.

Had a meeting last night with Cookie Monster, who if you'll recall is the guy I answer to at my security company who doesn't generally give a shit about anything at my site. I was pretty sure that the meeting would simply be that we're putting an additional shift on, so I wasn't really expecting much of import from the meeting.

However, it would appear that we're more than doubling my complement of guards, going up to twelve. Overnight I've just become a site of note, simply from the shift count. My budget is probably going to swell to something on the order of a quarter million dollars annually, although I doubt we'll keep this level for that long. And dangled in front of me was taking over the entire complex (we don't have that yet - that's the bike patrol guys of which so many of my blogs have concerned) and putting that underneath me.

I was so surprised at the turn of events, that in the mix of logistics I was trying to compose I completely forgot to get myself a raise out of the deal. Ah well, there's time for that I suppose.

I'm going to be heartily amused if we're still out of there when I expected us to be - in about four months. ULTIMATE COSMIC POWER... itty bitty job duration.

Seacrest out.
