Is that like "It must work because no one complained"?
With the perfect ingredient of "we didn't tell anyone to try it", so who knows how long they'd have gone on?
I think you just demonstrated why businesses need project managers
This is supposed to be operational, though. Someone needs to step up and manage status one way or another, and since he knows I'm out of the loop, what did he think was going to happen?
He ended up sending me a spreadsheet in the middle of the meeting and asking me to take over for him. Emergency. I don't doubt him, but still. I had to make stuff up, because STILL OUT OF THE LOOP.
Maria, I think you have a best possible current status. Fingers crossed!
You know, I'm way more excited about this potential job--with its increased responsibilities and expectations--as I ever was about the job I'm currently in. That says something.
I am trying soooo hard not to be bounce, bounce, bouncy in the office right now. Ridic. I have no clue how I'm going to make it through this weekend, because I want to know now, damnit.
My fingers are crossed Maria!
Fingers knotted in a Star of David for you. Sounds super super promising.
Timelies all!
Weather's been nice this week. They're talking about rain for tomorrow. Of course.
I am sad. I found the last Cost Market Plus Whatever Adirondack chair in the Los Angeles area, and *purchased* it to find out it can't fit in my car assembled. Now I have to do actual shopping to find one. Pfah. I wanted it for tomorrow.
I survived the Registry even though my wait was closer to 45 minutes than the 30 predicted, but given that it's close to the end of the month and all, I won't complain. And now I won't be driving on expired insurance or expired registration, so I feel like I'm slowly coming out of the extended funk I've been stuck on for the past couple of weeks....
Did you know "you" could rent Eric Clapton's Venice Beach house?

(My new boss has discovered I can word good. Now I'm apparently writing emails for the intern as well as website copy. I think I've performed poorly if it's taken him this long to work it out--but when he handed me the web pages on Wednesday and explained his goals and asked for a review, apparently everyone fell in love with it. Come on! I have an "excellent presentation" award from the CIO pinned up in my cubicle. It's my not-so-stealth differentiator.)
(My previous manager thought I was pretty incompetent when it came to communication...)
Right! Grab the fruit salad for late lunch and back to the presentation.
