sometimes too fast and you don't get done all that you wanted to do.
Need to finish up my recommendation for how exactly to upgrade a system my company did back in the late 80's by the end of the day tomorrow for example

good luck with your task

9 am, stupid waste of time, HR meeting  this could be done via email imo
11am, i need to give a presentation of 8 new products launching this year, and then after that, i've got to get our new campaign uploaded to the magazines... all before i leave for the day.

meetings of any sort are usually a waste of time 

I foolishly tried to make that point.  Was not a good strategy.   

Got a good laugh yesterday.
Received an email regarding the sales conference thingy I went to Vegas for.
It was from the marketing guy for the manufacturer that held it, saying that it turned out well and then mentioned specific things that they did right and others they will improve upon next time. One was that they will come up with better jokes during their presentations (it's the marketing guy that does most of it), it goes on to mention me by name as simply suggesting they hire someone actually funny to do them.

Working on Molly's fueling.  I go to adjust the fuel screws.  Left side carb, adjusted 4 turns out per a trusted source's recommendation.  Right side carb, I find the fuel screw is barely recognizable...

This M750 is going to be the killer of my patience.
