Below is the email i received from my lady boss



Some of the things that you might find yourself working on with regard to the HP side of the job might be reviewing contracts/Statements of Work for accuracy, taking in client briefs for upcoming work, helping to scope new projects according to the client requests, following up on tasks that have been assigned to the HP team- basically making sure that projects are progressing as they should.


Some additional things that you might be doing would be helping generate reports for the HP client and others like Sony Ericsson. We would like to have someone learn the reporting process which would mean that the person that takes this position would be working closely with our reporting person to learn that skillset so the job could be shared.


And then I shut up @ 8/05/2008 11:57:00 AM

Paranoid, pessimistic girl with near zero self-esteem. Works in the digital media arena in a country so fond of traditional media. Wished she could sing like Christina, danced like Ciara, play the guitar like Steve Vai, play the trumpet like Louis Armstrong and play the drums like Mike Portnoy. Collects Tamagotchi and finds nothing wrong with it because it makes her happy.
