I'm now very afraid of work tomorrow. I was invited to a seemingly innocuous meeting with my VP and another director to discuss this project I've been working on and it's application to our business.

Sending mojo as I type, lovie! Good luck tomorrow, I hope things go your way! Maybe you can barter for LJ time at work in return for the thankless, grueling job?

Hmmm. I wonder if they would go for that? ;-) (I think not, alas.)

*hugs* I wish you good luck at your meeting, sweetie. Here's hoping you don't hear the theme from "Jaws" as you walk in the meeting room.

Never mind the previous comment... I see the issue now. Whoa. I agree with you.

Yeah, suckage. It's interested how my priorities have changed. There are times in my career when I might have sought this opportunity, but right now I find myself having to actively avoid increased responsibility. There have been 2-3 jobs I know are open in my group alone that would be more of a challenge, higher visibility, better for my career, more engaging that I'm almost certain I could have had if I'd wanted them (still woulda had to interview & all, but given the lack of other candidates, my chances would have been very good, imho) ... but I've consciously not even pursued them. It feels odd.

This one, well ... I'll have to actively avoid, and it still may not be enough. eeeee!
