Thanks for the positive feedback - I’m glad that things are largely good for you. We’re aware that things feel particularly pressured for some of us right now - that’s a result of the continuing growth in submissions and implementation of our global growth strategy. We’re working on ways to alleviate that so I hope that you feel some relief soon - please talk to your manager if things remain difficult.
