The Xchange Applications mini-reunion. I am the good-looking one.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In a previous life (or so it seems) I worked for a company called Xchange Applications. It was the job where I reached my management peak, with 15 people reporting to me. I was employed there for over 10 years and, during that time, formed some lifelong friendships. The company was acquired by another company in 2003 and I continued to work with that company for 3 more years, but most moved on to other opportunities and I lost track of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, two weeks ago Steve Marshall, one of those lifelong friends, found me and several others and hosted a mini-reunion at a nice AirBnB in Naples FL. It was a lovely afternoon catching up with some old work friends, most of whom I had not seen in over 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks, Steve!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
