The company keeps asking us the beginning of every quarter for a show of interest in VSB but then nothing. SHIW ME THE MONEY!!!!

I know I have been away for a couple weeks due to vacation, CGDO, and illness so I did not attempt to make sense of those weeks. Most recent report is pretty accurate, but still wrong and understating my hours in the office, as always.
