Another good point was have a solution to recommend and make sure VP guy knows what's going on with stuff on your plate. Full disclosure, but with a recommendation that makes both of you sucessful.

Oh, and finding a subtle way to reiterate what you discuss in an email is good for CYA. Small exception being for the "conversation that never happened" over lunch.

Good luck. You've got my number if you want to call and discuss.
Two good points. Never go into a meeting or discussion without having both a solution and hopefully one that makes your boss and hopefully yourself look good in the process.

Anyone can find problems with many projects or jobs but a professional figures out the problems and comes up with a solution that works and makes everyone look better at the same time.
