It's Mine!!!!!!!!!!!
So for those that do not know...I have been living in a lot of transitions lately. There have been constant fluxes,and not just in my personal life. My work life has flexed and changed the face of itself also.
I gained an unqualified supervisor that I like as a person but need to teach how to do her job.I am one of two people left in a "temporary" status at my work place of about 300 people. Being one of the last is good and lets me see that I do indeed know what I am doing and that I am valued in some way. With all the budget cuts and layoffs however, I have been unable to relax about my position at work.
Soooo...last Friday I interviewed for the position that I have been recently trained to do...and low and behold...
Drum roll please.
I am the chosen candidate. :)
I will be hired in a probationary permanent position as of May 16th.
Lets out a big sigh of relief.
It doesn't guarantee that I won't get laid off sometime, but it is a much better position than I am in currently.
Oh and did I mention pay raise?
The other great part of today was that it was the first full day doing my new job description. I actually lost track of time, and was gleefully organizing and prioritizing my work load. Oh no...that didn't make the Virgo happy at all.
The other cool piece of this is that I can see progress in my work load. There is a beginning and an end. I left work for the first time in a year with a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment. I have many days with one or the other, but not often both.
Damn that feels good.
My life doesn't suck.
New roommates are moving in June 1st, new job May 16th,and life and all its transitions is finally starting to show me a picture that I can enjoy.
Sitting down now, calming down now...and just taking a moment to breathe.
Great day!
