And the good news rolls on

So, I got somewhat of a promotion today. After 3 months. And that makes me very, very happy. Seems I am no longer to consider myself merely an Admin. I am a "Marketing Coordinator." For the entire department. And they are extending my duties to include jr. marketing kinds of stuff. And this makes me very happy. Like I said before.

And now I drink Jasmine IPA. Because I am happy.

Thank you!

I haven't seen the money yet- but thought it inadvisable to make that part of the discussion yesterday. It will come. There are deep pockets at work. And I have 3 months left on my contract. But my overall plan of making myself indespensable seems to be working well. Avast!

watch that though; they usually demand your soul with a promotion.

Hooray! Congratulations! They are lucky to have you. I am drinking a white belgian in your honor. ^_^

Yeah- the soul thing bears watching. That culture kind of spins in that direction.

And I certainly hope that the White Belgian has an orange slice. Otherwise, it's incomplete. Like hot chocolate without the little tiny marshmallows. Or Currier without Ives. Or Abbott without Costello...
and now I stop myself from descending into some very strange territory.
