I just can't wait to get on the road again...
I'm in the middle of 'lead hunting' season at work, which translates into 'go forth young man' and find for sale/lease/available properties! Normally what I do is go gather data on 'all' buildings, but right now I'm running the miles and only stopping for those with sales/leasing info and/or ones that don't have updated photos, that are NOT in the system already.
our travel dept booked me into an urban Days Inn... which I initially gave about a 2.5 star out of 5. Really urban, rough neighborhood, no food nearby and no Fridge in the room. ugh. That got better however when I moved my gear in after work... the pretty young lady at the desk was kind enough to find a fridge and microwave and deliver them to my room. I handled getting them in here, but now I at least can keep some soda and cold cuts cool without resorting to the cooler and ice machine routine. I'll give that a .75 star right there, so now it's a 3.25. Still urban, still a rough neighborhood, but slightly easier to live in for three nights.
At least it is on the company tab, so I just get to work and hang out down here for a couple of nights.
oh, and Here is Binghamton NY for the incurably curious.
