When I’m the One Making 100k Decisions… Things Can’t Be Going Well
It’s a little exciting/nervewracking to be seeing the effects of what I’ve been doing at work. Ok so I’ve been pushing this new line of products because… customers keep e-mailing me about them, its pretty simple. Seems like there might be a market for it I guess. Then again… MY MAJOR WAS PSYCHOBIOLOGY… I’ve taken like two marketing classes in my life, why the hell are you listening to me?
So here I am, in China, in a design review meeting for the second connector we are tooling upon my recommendation, (this ones going to cost us 60k the last one was 40k) and I start thinking to myself… wow, we’re spending 100k dollars and a ton of our engineers time because of something I said?

Ok, lets get passed the fact that my pretending that I know what I’m doing has worked way to well for me, I’m actually pretty sure this is going to workout for us, mostly because I’m going to make it work. If it doesn’t they pretty much have nobody to blame except for me so… yeah.
Nobody has any idea that I’m freaking out about this inside my head, because, somewhere along the line, I realized that for some reason I get a much better reaction out of people when I pretend to be 100% confident in what I’m doing and also pretend that I know exactly what I’m talking about always, couldn’t be further from the truth.
My job is to do internet marketing for a heavily engineering based company. What did I study in school? Biology and psychology, nuff’ said.
