RE: I've landed

["Ron Hearn" <RHearn -at- cucbc -dot- com>]

I've done the same over the years and with few exceptions, it has served
me well, the exceptions being in boss-from-Hell situations. 

Good luck with your new job John - I hope it works out great for you.

to 
make me and my boss look good.

"Promise 5% more than the boss wants and deliver 5% more than promised."
