A Red Banner Day

July 19 2006

On Wednesday I received a very unexpected phone call from one of our executives in Houston.  Bottomline - promotion granted.  Raise - given.


To the outsider, one might say "so what?".  But, to those that know ... a promotion in my company is a big deal .... and the average person will only see 4 or 5 in their entire career.  For me, it is Number 6 (and probably my last).


Additionally, by almost anybody's standards (except Bill Gates and Warren Buffets) the amount of salary increase (both in $$$ and %%%) was very very very good.


I am so excited and pleased.


... and the $$$ come in at a time when I am getting ready to support all three Morgan boys in college at the same time ... three checks are due to go out next week.


THANK YOU, GOD !!!!!
