Only the other day, I was saying to Wife over tea and buns that one of the things that I love most about my current job is that I don’t have to pitch – just work on my accounts.
Oh, the irony! The very next day, in comes a request from Chairman for me to plan on a Very Big Pitch indeed, one on which I was (apparently, though I never know if I should believe this) asked for specifically by the Client, who has worked with me before.
Bollocks: it’s a lose/lose situation. Even if we win it, my stock can’t get any higher – and it’s far more likely that we’ll lose, thus making me look like an utter retard, who wouldn’t know a strategy if it licked his balls.
