Friday before last I got hijacked by the president of the company. He was wanting me to build and deploy a 4-device Hyper-V VM stack in Azure (2 app, 1db, 1 active directory) for a client project. He had problems setting up credit card billing too, so wanted me to fix that as well. Oh, and had to be done by Thursday. So, I had a 72 turn around time to handle a stack of technologies I've never touched before.

Reasonably proud of the turn around time. Especially since it touched a number of technologies I haven't worked with before.
