Corporate rates

A campus-wide power cut today meant that my scheduled three-hour meeting about CRM (i.e. rather reliant on the availability of a networked PC and projection facilities) was moved to a nearby hotel.  I hadn't had an opportunity to grab any lunch, as the lack of electricity had also closed all the shops on campus, so my boss was kind enough to buy me a sandwich from the bar.

Six pounds fifty. For a ham sandwich. Admittedly, that'd normally be served with chips & salad, but we'd declined them and expected a more... realistic price.

I'm in the wrong business.
