Drumming for Microsoft

Today we put more than 7000 drums on conference seats in the Amsterdam RAI. Microsoft's Tech·Ed 04 is in town. Microsoft decided that their conference delegates would have to go 'back to their roots'. The smell of all those handdrums was awful. I wonder how many goat-herds they would have to have killed for this.
At the lunch break, we indulged in a copious meal. No financial problems within this organization, I suppose. After the lunch, we had to sit through a boring video explaining the security measures for the crew. But after that, there was no work. So we waited, and waited. Until we were told to go home. I love Microsoft!
