Isn't that what conference calls are all about?

That seems like pure torture just for a meeting.

I think I am going because the customer is angry and my company sees me as a sacrifice.

I'm not there long enough for good beer... Only one night, and I'll probably be beat.

There is a chance I'll be going to Switzerland in the next few months. We'll see though. One fo the other guys IS going, he's going to see if he needs my help.

Guess I REALLY need to get my passport done.

On such a short trip like that, you should've taken an extra day or two over there. Paid the hotel yourself and enjoyed it a little Smile

Maybe that's just me though.

I'd love to travel over there to see the country again.
