It seems I might have successfully sneaked out the New York trip. I presented a case for cost cutting purposes and how the customer would save money by not having me there, making myself (so far) redundant. Of course I never mentioned how I completely loathed the idea of spending three weeks running around the city like a headless chicken, and how I prefered to go to Vienna to celebrate my friend’s birthday instead. These people are fickle, though. Which means things can change from one day to the next.
