Career drift
Didn't I just wish that I would drift someplace in my job where I would be useful? Well, it appears that I'm now going to drift right into the Data Management office (which is still within the Office of the Registrar), with a fairly substantial raise to boot. Not clear yet what the new job duties will be (I will retain my current duties and job title), but it will probably involve data extraction and reporting, possibly even a little programming. The phrase "data cubes" was bandied about. Whatever. Considering how useless I've been feeling here, I'm a bit agog at the news. Gosh. Did I mention the raise? What did I do to deserve this?!
