Small request for some good thoughts for DW

[Bob Slydell]

On Thursday, DW's firm is making a proposal for the audit work of a Fortune 500 company in town. It would be the largest client her office has ever landed and a huge win for her firm in general. She's been the global coordinator for the bid and it's been much of her life's work for the last 3 months or so. Unfortunately, she doesn't get to be a part of the presentation team herself -- they're only allowed 5 people at the presentation and the firm brought in some heavy hitters for the presentation piece. But it's very much her presentation.

I don't know when exactly the company's making it's decision, but it's sometime in April and I'll let you know whether or not they win the client. If you don't mind, keep her in your thoughts this week. Thanks.

This plays a part in whether ot not we move. If they win this client, we're probably not moving. But it's a 1 in 3 chance that they'll be picked. Her managing partner won't even discuss her moving until they find out the results of this proposal (mostly because he wants to remain optimistic that they'll get them )

Well, I hope it turns out the way you and your DW want it to. There are definitely pluses and minuses to both scenarios.

Gladly!

You got it, Steve!

Yep We're both torn on this as well -- it would obviously be a good thing if they landed this client (and she'd get god(dess)-like status in the office), but on the other hand, we've really got our heart set on going to London.

Thanks guys

But my firm is also bidding on that account.

Good luck to you and her and them.

I figured Tim (NewJersey) would be the first to say that It's his firm's client right now, IIRC

Sending positive thoughts and good luck for your DW and firm.

Wow! That's exciting and nerve wracking both. Best wishes for a great outcome! We need a finger-crossing smilie.


Maybe you need to take her out Wednesday night to get her mind off the next day.....
