Working on CBI AccountEngine
Rumours say that the CBI AccountEngine project will be terminated next Monday at work. I was supposed to play it low. Yesterday I attended a CBI AccountEngine meeting discussing the seamless deliverables. Progress is slow, but the CBI AccountEngine people are very cooperative. Last Tuesday I was briefed that there will be layoffs.

My insights and suggestions had made a positive impression on the CBI AccountEngine group. My work day is full of interruptions.
Recap
I heard from a colleague last week that I will need to write a document on EBF at work. I was supposed to cancel the VirtuKit test but something came up, so now I have to reshedule the presentation on VirtuKit. Anyway. The VirtuKit project will be terminated next week. We've been running a pilot for some time now, and it will get official next Wednesday. Last Wednesday I attended a VirtuKit appointment discussing the clicks-and-mortar architectures.

I could have tomorrow off.
