Royal(PITA) 14270 West Chester, Ohio | Subject: RE: Challenge Chat (aka Nibbs XVI) - come join us :) Hiya Nibbs! I'm tired...up at 4:45 to swim before werk today...Then the coach called off sick and I didn't find out until after my warm up so I didn't have my book of workouts poolside and was too wet to go do a spin class (see, I am turning cyclist after all!) |

It's a HUGE relief hehe all those smiley faces kind of give it away LOL In this case it's even more than just getting off of my desk - it was kind of a make or break moment with the IT management staff - I really need to get them to trust that I will deliver what I say I will deliver and I did that baby steps, but good steps forward in the project from a relationship standpoint! |

Bribes are good too... I find buying people a coffee and having a casual 'chat' (work related or not) works wonders in so many situations! |

I am certainly not above 'bribing' As soon as I can break through the wall enough to figure out what would be a good bribe - I'm all over it! |

(people seem to let their guard dwon when its one on one and not in a meeting room... at least its helped me a lot!) |

These folks are so guarded that I haven't even been able to approach them in the lunch room - they've been burned and I need to tread a bit lightly to get closer to them - before they know it, they will love me (they just don't know it right now ) btw - are you doing the may challenge? |

No Im not in it... they have been more of a hindrance than a help recently... And I was particularly inspired by the current one! (for starters swimming in an outdoor pool in the middle of winter did not appeal at all!) |
