Recognition at last!

So our prototype is still working. We've been checking out every detail we can try to think of, but so far everything is meeting or beating our expectations. The business people (a.k.a. The Suits) are as close to dancing in the halls as they've ever been, and we're pretty stoked that we keep having the same conversation every day:

Him: So, did you test the x-y-z today? Me: Yup, and it worked! It passed with flying colors! Him: Cool!

Because everything's rolling along so incredibly well and the business big-wigs are incredibly happy with our progress, everyone on our team got a recognition award! I now have a nice framed piece of paper with my name and boss' signature on it, and it's really nice to know that all of our hard work has really paid off...

... and the nice little monetary bonus makes it even more rewarding!
