Cheese comes in 120 ct.
Above is an actual first sentence from an email I got this morning. The week before an event all of the big strategic planning has been taken care of, obvious issues have been dealt with, my cell phone’s charge and ready to trouble shoot, and it comes down to the details. Do we order 600 slices of cheese or 960 or more? We’ve got 4,000+ people pre-registered for the event but how many will actually come to another location for a party and of those how many want cheese on their burger? Is this what program management comes down to, and heaven forbid we run out of cheese…will I face an inbox of hate email next week?

First thing Jeca, remember that it's not really cheese. Rather it's some confection that tastes almost, but not quite entirely, unlike cheese and is cleverly packaged in a thin plastic that is eerily similar in consistency and texture to itself. And secondly, I don't remember where I was going with this. Order 720. Seems such a nice number...
