Hey, JB, late to the party. I just read all the posts and am not surprised he came home with some appropriate work. I was very impressed with how your meeting went. Your word choice was excellent, you were assertive without appearing pushy or coming off as "unreasonable".

You are right to be satisfied with a good meeting and settle in to stay the course. Steady and slow and don't burn yourself out.

You are now a pro.

Please stick around, I may need to be asking for your advice in the future.
