Day in the Life

From TWL:

Finally the mid-​​​​tier IT company that you’ve been battling with all year gives you some good news — the CEO is coming to the UK in three weeks. “He’s got some news, not sure what it is yet. Word is, it’s a European acquis­i­tion. You’ve got a half day for media stuff, the rest
