  1. Have you guys ever asked yourselves, how the hell did I get here?  For me, I'm in sales but I have a real fear of public speaking.  These two really don't go together...I'm fine talking to small groups of people (10-20), but tonight I'm going to have to speak to 100+ hostile people and I'm kinda freaking out.  It's irrational and I know a lot of people have the same fear.  Hell, the 2nd greatest fear people have is dying behind public speaking.  Can you believe that?  Anyways, sorry for hogging status updates.

      Well I survived.  All in all I think the public meeting was generally positive and would describe it as grudgingly accepting of the message I was sharing.  One lady though was irrationally angry and confronted me after the presentation and she was just shaking she was so angry, but she was definitely the exception of the bunch.

      I'm an account manager with SaskWater, a crown corporation for the provincial government (Water utility).  We are losing money in a system that we are gradually trying to get to a cost of service level however the issue is compounded by the fact that the raw water supply system needs to be replaced for an additional couple million which translates into big rate increases.  It's ugly no matter how you spin it but I think people understood the importance of the project and the risk of failure if no action is taken.
