I said something like, "You guys play well in August, but we'll see what happens in September." The client, probably used to and expecting this, brought up payroll or something NotBob would say and the partner got all flush because and shocked that I would say such a thing. He apologized for me and immediately started talking about how great Boston fans were and how Fenway was like no other park. The client looked at him like he was fucking crazy.

*Example: "That was a great question. Very insightful. It's just the type of thoughtful review I would expect from someone as sophisticated as you."
That is not exaggerated one little bit.

I'm sort of like that. Only.not.a.partner.
Sad. Now maybe you can understand what happened to me.
