________________________________

Let me start with: laziness and stupididty are the 2 main attributes that i detest. Don't let me down.

Main issues: be proactive (fine line between being proactive and annoying - ask pete). Keep your eyes glued on the screens for stories - get a quick analysis from research or tim - is there are sotry or not. If too many questions - put it out anyway and summarize NON story or relevant. This is your office, you are running the company.

BOMS - u are specialist - don't slack off. We are doing a good job there.

BLOOMS - get them out before 11am instead of munching on M and Ms.
Pete gone next week - morning call to london, and market comment - all you.

Clients:
***CLIENT1*** - call if u think story going to affect mrkt.
***CLIENT2***- long -i'll be in touch with him. BUT DON'T BE NEGATIVE ON trnfp, sber, mbt or gazprom. Main positions.
***CLIENT3*** - told him will be travelling - still looking to pick up some trnfp - give him as much color about who activevly trading the stock and flows we see.
***CLIENT4**- Tim back - don't think u need to worry.
***CLIENT5***- bloom with him, he may have some business.
MAKE PROACTIVE CALLS TO YOUR NEW GUYS - XXXX,XXXX,XXXX,XXX Fuk,XXX,XXXXX

That's about it - run the desk it's not vacation time yet, don't let me down.
i have faith in u buddy - u are a direct reflection of me
