Big Red Car here. Low clouds, warm wind out of the south — going to be a nice hot Texas day before it’s all over.
The Texas heat can be a chore but it’s only June, so it is only going to get hotter. Haven’t hit 100F for a stretch yet, so we still have a bit of time to go. Bring it, sayeth the Big Red Car.
Big Red Car here. Nice windy and cool day in the ATX. Kind of hard to figure what kind of day this is really going to be? We shall see. Cloudy with thunderstorms is what the Intellicast man says. Who really knows, it’s Texas.
So the Big Red Car gets an email — haha, the Big Red Car gets an email — from an Old Sport who asks:
“Hey, Big Red Car, this C Level Employment Agreement stuff is great for a CEO but what about us guys in the cubes? We ain’t chopped liver, we’re software engineers, SEO experts and the like. How do we get some diluted CEO love?”
Big Red Car here. Going to be a bit cloudy and gloomy in the ATX today. Hmmm, it is getting close to Memorial Day, the day of historic Austin, Texas flooding.
You are way too young, Grasshopper, to remember the 1981 Memorial Day floods when Shoal Creek was filled to overflowing with wrecked cars. Oh, that was a day.
Big Red Car here. It’s going to be almost 100F and a bit sunny today in the afternoon. Hoping to get some top down time this afternoon.
So The Boss is having coffee this morning with one of his CEO clients. Nice guy.
Big Red Car here. Well, The Boss is working with several CEOs of startup companies and some small/medium businesses. He enjoys doing it.
Every once in a while it is worthwhile to do a bit of bragging. The Boss is very impressed with how the CEO of EstateCreate in London is working his deal and growing his business.
Big Red Car here. Looks like another great day in paradise. On Earth as it is in Texas!
The Boss was shaking his head on the way back from coffee this morning. [Hey, I was driving. I was out early with the top down and the wind on my nose and I was loving life in the ATX.]
Big Red Car here. Nice cool morning here in the ATX. Yesterday I was fibbing about the quality of the day — it was cloudy. Too much Chamber of Commerce for the Big Red Car, sorry.
So this morning The Boss is out with one of his CEOs talking him down off the ledge. CEOs allow themselves to get a bit exercised sometimes and need a bit of tough love to get them back into the traces.
Big Red Car here. Turning out to be a great day here in the ATX. Sorry to be always bragging but, Hell, it’s true. And, you know it, right?
So The Boss gets a phone call from one of his CEO clients — the fellow is feeling a bit of pressure and declares himself to be a bit frazzled. WTF — frazzled?
Big Red Car here. Turning out to be a pretty day here in the ATX and why not? Bit of sunshine peeking through after some drizzle yesterday.
Well, the plants and flowers need it, don’t they? They need it for growth. Let’s talk about growth — growing the organization of a startup or small business. Haha, Big Red Car, you are some kind of wag, aren’t you?
Big Red Car here. Chilly today, brrrrr! But a very hot article today in Venture Beat about Austin — by God — Texas where me and The Boss reside.
Well, the secret is out. And, the secret is Austin, Texas!
