Update on Job

Well I was informed last nite that I did not get the position I applied and interviewed for. The Director said that she selected me, but her Boss did not approve it. She sent me up twice as her choice. Her boss stated that my knowledge was in the technical area, and not the Leadership roll she thought the position should be. The Director however felt that I need the technical expertise in order to lead and direct the staff. She said she could have pushed for it, but she has seen how they treat ppl who they didn't want selelcted. So she dropped it, and is trying to find me another way in, because she really respects the work that I do. I thanked her for not putting me in the Lion's Den. Cause I could not work with ppl doing their best to set me up for failure.

At least, I had the opportunity to brush up on my application and interviewing experience. Cause I really haven't had to do either since I got this position 6 years ago.

Thanks for all that wished me luck and kept me in their prayers. Holla.

  • TTD ready to go (heck it was 4 in the morn) and GTL wanting to stay...something about an interesting convo, lol.
  • Cool AC and Jackie arriving and telling me their Gov't names and me tryna figure out who they belonged to. LOL. It didn't click till they said their blog names.

  • Mikey last to leave. Lets just say he was there long enough to have breakfast and watch all but the last 10 mins of the Skins game. He saw us out when we left to take Laa to the airport.
  • LAA. Girl you right you get the Came the farthest award. She came all the way for MI. She bought her ticket before Missy did and was packed at least 2 weeks in advance.
  • Reesie. Gets the Putting your foot all up in it award. You tasted the food. So no need to explain.
