Mar. 29th, 2010 09:49 pmOh ship! Hmm! Huh. Hmm!
I have some people at work, mentioned earlier, who hate my guts as an ass-sucking little sucking suck-up who sucks. They try to backstab me and continually fail. Me, I'm tired of being important (mostly, at least the part that requires me working all the time) and wish they'd do the work and stop being jealous of the credit I get. Huh.
So I'm in good political graces, and saw today a draft of what goes out on 4/14 maybe which would allow me to talk about what I did for 8 months more. Of course, nobody in their right mind will care but I feel that huge urge to tell my stuff, good or bad...but I'm currently well received up to the Secretary's office (at least Under-Sec).
I didn't apply to the Dir job or the Dep Dir job.
I have a buddy I still talk to - Jonathan. He's one of the 3 litigators who trained me while I was still in law school - the case we did together closed on a summary judgment motion that he helped me write. He left our group when a HS educated person was chosen over him, despite his JD and bar membership, as the Director. I kept talking to him, swapping politically sanitized stories about the office and war stories from law school. He's smart, hard working, but unlike some of our more successful individuals he is very respectful - far more likely to inspire your good work out of example than by berating you.
So, Jonathan was just picked as the new Director, LERD. That's fantastic for the organization and for me, but what is really nuts is that they also just cancelled the dep dir job and re-posted it (I think, just glanced at my bb). That's...huge. I didn't apply before as its only a minor promotion, I like my current job, and I didn't know who the Dir was. Well, now I do and he's really good. I could be part of something good, it's a great time as I'm in good graces all the way up, and these opportunities are rare.
Hmm.
EDIT - Bwa! I was mistaken, the re-posted job was NOT for the deputy. Dilemma averted.
