I’m back from Orem where we had some fairly productive meetings. We were all able to meet our new boss’ boss, Steve Brown. He seems like a really good guy and I think that he got a really good overview of what we do. As a team, we’re completely different from everybody else in his group (we’re primarily technical, the rest are primarily administrative.) Hopefully we can meet as a team on a more regular basis. Some of the non-work related highlights from the trip were seeing Jared Pollister, getting a Ford Excursion as a rental car and seeing “I, Robot”:irimdb.
- It sounds a though Jared is doing really well. He seems very happy with his life and all the changes that have been made.
- The Ford Excursion is a monstrosity. The backup alarm/sensor was amusing.
- “I, Robot”:irimdb was quite entertaining. Yeah, sure, it’s very loosely based on the Isaac Asimov “book”:iramazon of the same name. I originally didn’t care to see it, but I read some reviews that seemed positive. I’m glad I got over my original bias of the film and checked it out.
