All,

I am a stuck in a trial on the West Coast that was supposed to take one
week.  We're on our second week and there is no end in sight.  I am hoping
that we will finish by this Friday.  I apologize for missing the meetings
but it couldn't be helped.  The time difference also makes it impossible to
get on the phone.

 

I'll see you all when I get back.

 

Regards

Haytham

Dear team,

 

I am back. Looks like last meeting went very well. I have reviewed the notes
and the last draft  of the ticket; well done.  I apologize for any
inconvenience  due to my absence. Please let this email serve as a reminder
of tonight's meeting at 6:00pm at the LIBC office.

most efficient and productive beginning phase II of the project.

 

Hope all is well. I miss you all  and really look forward to seeing everyone

Hello All,

I have attached the new design for our ticket courtesy of Rania. She said
the she's not sure of the star locations, so let me know so she can correct
it. Also, let me know what you think of the ticket so we can have it ready
for the next meeting. 

I would also like to ask if we can change the next meeting from Friday the
25th to Monday the 28th at 6pm. It will be difficult for some to make it
Friday night. Please consider it and let me know. 

Thank you for your time,
