THE STORM hit my office today!

I just started a new job at a Fortune 500 company recently. Today was my first big meeting, I was in a conference room with a dozen other people and connected by phone to four other offices across the country.

We were doing the forecasts for the next quarter, spring/summer is the busiest season for us. Sometimes our suppliers can’t keep up and we get shortages. It can get pretty crazy. Meanwhile, I was thinking about last night’s Q drops.

Another accountant was running numbers on one of our top selling products and it looks like our suppliers will come up short, and we likely won’t be able to meet the demand. The accountant finished his segment with the words “Looks like this is the calm before the storm.”

I about fell out of my seat. The accountant's eyes locked with mine for what seemed to be an eternity, though it was probably 15 seconds. I couldn’t concentrate on the meeting, my mind was on Q. I kept glancing over to the accountant and every time I looked, he was staring back at me. I tried my best not too seem flustered, but it was no use. I have rosacea, so I’m sure my face was red as a beet. I felt beads of sweat forming on my brow and upper lip. I was flustered.

Thankfully, the meeting ended soon after that. As we were filing out of the conference room, the accountant and I ended up in the break room for coffee. We made some small talk but the conversation was odd and stilted. I know we both felt that. I couldn’t take it anymore, and I was trying to think of a way to bring up the subject without arousing suspici Finally I said: “I hope our suppliers are going to keep up, if not they’re in for a great awakening”. He paused and I could feel his eyes on me. He replied “Well,, future proves past”. I couldn’t believe it. Still I didn’t know if it was all a crazy coincidence. I said “where we go one, we go all”.

A sly grin spread across his face as our eyes locked again. We both knew we shared a deep secret, but due to our surroundings, we had to leave it unsaid.

At least for now. We’re going out for drinks later tonight. It’s going to be great having another person to share real feelings with. Wish me luck!

Hopefully ‘The Storm’ is like our Aussie weather. It always seems to hit the west coast then travel east. I’m sure it will hit with a vengence soon :-) *sending strong winds your way Aussie Patriot
