Nov. 14th, 2001 01:20 pmWe got a new CFO today. When her predecessor (now VP of business dev) introduced us, the new CFO said "oh, I know Monica". Err, umm, ack... I felt embarrassed because while she looked kind of familiar I could just *not* place her (and probably lots of people look kind of familiar who aren't really). But then she went on: "you were at CGI, weren't you?".
Yes, I was. I left in 1988.
Ok, how many of you still clearly remember the people you worked with in 1988 (you young'ns can skip this question), especially those who were *not* your day-to-day coworkers? I mean, it's not like Robin was another engineer I worked with all the time; she was probably one of the accountants or something. I don't remember.
I've always been bad with names and faces, but somehow I don't think this one reflects that badly on me. :-)

Date: 2001-11-14 12:02 pm (UTC)Lori used to be in the SCA (her name is Marilee). She was the local dance mistress for a couple of years about a decade ago, give or take. (Lori, you'll have to correct me here.) She's not active in the SCA now, and I can't remember whether the two of you overlapped back then.

Date: 2001-11-14 02:58 pm (UTC)You've got it as right as I would've. I was defintely dancemistress in 1991, 1992 and 1993...I really can't remember when I quit -- I think it was summer 1994.
I find it hard to believe that was now a decade ago, but it was. Sheesh. ;-)
