Is it possible that they are trying to keep you on for a few more months while the new guy learns the job?
Could be. I did point out to them that the recruiting assistant was going to be on her honeymoon for most of April and we'd be especially short-handed.
What is the timeline you got from your source?
End of the month. Month not specified. March or April. But I was pretty sure it was March since (a) they had me calculate my vacation balance through March, (b) end of the month lands on end of the paycycle which is convenient from an HR perspective; (c) we're moving to a new floor in a couple weeks and why bother moving me to cut me loose?
I don't know what the fuck's happening now.
Sorry things are so up in the air Hec.
If she's really nice, I'm voting that she's out-of-the-loopy, and probably that she's been kept out of the loop, for plausible deniability, in just such a situation.
This would be my guess. I'm so sorry this is dragging out, David.
Oh, Hec, that totally sucks.
I just dropped my classes. I know, I know. I decided to do this like two weeks ago, but I've been putting it off. I'm all sad.
Plausible deniability is also a definite option. I really don't think she'd lie to my face in response to a direct question.
{{{vw}}} I'm sorry. I know how hard that must be for you. Remember, this is just a speed bump.
{{{vw}}} That's got to be such a hard decision to make, but I'm glad you're making your own health a priority. The classes will all still be there next semester, and you'll have so much more to give to them and get back from them.
Sorry...didn't mean to take the spotlight off Hec. Just commenting, as I seem to always do.
In completely unrelated news, my old big!boss is on the front page of the university's website today: [link] That's kind of cool.
