I thought I’d give you a quick idea of how things went for me this week. First, a BIG thank you for all the positive comments you’ve sent my way. It has really made me feel welcome. And a special big thanks to all the guys (that’d be Willie, Anthony, Jack, Allen, Daryl, Nathan, Ali, etc.) that worked so quickly to get Judy and I up and running. I know I told you at the all-hands that I was going to be bringing my lunch. That was before I saw the cafeteria–it rocks! Forget that leftover stuff! decoded: thanks to the plebes for setting up my throne. and i was only kidding about brown bagging it, i like gourmet food at our cafeteria...and don't bother me during lunch --- carol: My first impression of the Yahoos is that you guys are smart and dedicated, and have a lot of great energy with a can-do attitude (ok, maybe there’s some sucking up because I’m the boss, but it impressed the heck out of me). I wasn’t too happy to see some “inside sources” quoting my all-hands comments to the outside press–STOP IT! And while we’re on the subject of all-hands, I cancelled the regularly scheduled after-earnings meeting simply because it’s just too close to the one we just had. Don’t take it as something it’s not. decoded: gag on this losers. anyone who didn't have the beach balls to leave is part of the problem --- carol: I’m pumped up and proud to be here. I’m going to spend my weekend shopping for something purple (great excuse for a little retail therapy)… decoded: i'm proud (and flabbergasted) that i was chosen as ceo...come on, didn't they look at my resume? autodesk! i've got to go get a latte and reflect on this wacky world.
