Buddy, you asked me for and since we have this partnership in which I ask and you experience what it is to be this crazy latino at time. I will not going to let you down. I have 3 good pipelines. One is west coast, other one is Midwest and the other is the in the middle of the plains. The west coast went cheap on me but they acknowledge my value and went through a route that you know I can not refuse most of the time, the challenge. The midwest comes from out of no where a recruiter in Miami of all places. He accepted the rate and I could feel I can trust the guy. The other one, I got late at night from my fellow consultant from Michigan that is now working in LA. He is refering me to this recruiter. All client are well know and I know for a fact that they are in the same position Whirlpool was when they came to me.
The west coast seems like chanllenge since we have 2 consulting firm and a client that I do not think is taking ownership. Just the fact that there is that many people and they are coming to get me tells me that this people are lost. My friend that got me in Siebel worked at that client while I was working in Mexico. He said that I can call him today at 3:00 PM to find more about what kind of mess this people are building here when that project should have been completed at least a year ago.
You message is loud and clear. I was guilty in several ocasion on just focusing in what was not working in my life. I remember these nice ladys that work in the supermarket, how with their smile and kindness remind me to change my thoughts. I thanked them for it, they were very gratefull.
I know he most probably would read this note. I hope he sees the correlation of your message and what I wanted him to be aware with our little incident. If I go to the West Coast, the thought of runing into him when he goes to OC was through my mind at all time. We will be less than an hour drive from each other. I want you to be awared of it. Also if I go to the Midwest, I know you will be visiting one or both city in the near future. I saw your profile park there one night last week. Whatever happens, I stand behind my word of honoring you and respecting you. I will treat you and love you like the dear friend that you have become to me. I hope you can see me like that one day.
Buddy, this is for you, because you never left my side. I had moments of weakness but I am learning not to be too hard on myself. What worries me is that when this happens a year ago, I remember being so sure that nothing could harm me because what I have tried to send out there is good energy. This time even though I know that what I have been given out is good energy. Nevertheless, I had my doubts which I never did before. I think it is because back then I was ready at any time to sell my soul and go with Big Blue or someone similar in oder to survive. This time I knew that could not take that option. Because I know I would sabotage myself in the interview. I can not seem too be able to lie or at least keep all details to myself any more. I can not be that consultant, I was once.
Thanks for all your are giving me. Making the crossing of the Atlantic seems like a big chanllenge as well with new projects starting so soon. I guess what I would do is what I used to do in my young age. Go to Europe for the weekend to celabrate my dear friend birthday and comeback to work on Monday. I did then, I can do it now. I have more grey hair now than before but my friend deserve everything good that you through her way.
