Good PR--not.

So I finish a big design job in record time, and want to meet this new client who replaced my old contact at the company. I ask her out to lunch, she likes sushi, it's a date. For noon today in Cambridge, about 20 miles away. So I get my stuff together, tootle over there, park, meet the client. She's charming and we enjoy ourselves. When the check comes, she tells me company regs say I'm not allowed to pay for hers as it might be a conflict of interest, so we'll go dutch.

Right?
Wrong.
Forgot my wallet.
Client buys lunch.

If you have too much time on your hands, you can discover here what I'm doing in semi-rural Massachusetts. I am a middle-aged (depending on how long I live) female with two kids, a husband and a dog.
