No, they haven't changed the schedule on the South Shore. That's when I had to set my alarm this morning. I'm carpooling to Schaumburg with Brenda and Kevin to take part in roundtable review of annual performance. Our meeting is at 7:00 a.m. and will be done around 8. It's not like we didn't try to swap. Karen (my boss) had to cancel an appointment with a VP from firmwide in order to attend. And we asked for reimbursement for hotels, but they wouldn't budge. It could have definitely been worse - there are groups coming into town today from Elkhart, IN and Madison, WI.
