The chair of the working group where I’m vice chair has served for three years and he’s stepping back for me to take his place 😳 as always I’m scared but excited! This is really going to help me develop my skills. And I’m applying for another position at my company that seems promising and would double my pay… my boss is going to reach out to the hiring manager and tell him that she couldn’t possibly recommend me more and she says that she knows I’ll excel in anything I do!! So hopefully things are looking up for me career-wise… keep lil ol’ me in your thoughts 🧿🫶
God, do I love when companies promote from within. I'm in the process of moving up into a new department (logistics -> system engineer) and I'm so excited. I'm just beginning "training" and was already given a pretty substantial raise. i'm already pretty well versed in a lot of it, since i've worked here like 6 years and there's decent departmental overlap, so it should be a pretty smooth transition. I've never understood why companies are so eager to look outside of their current pool of employees when a position opens up (I completely understand why they do this.) I much prefer when companies do this, rather than hiring someone who doesn't know anyone or anything about how things work when there's a current employee that could move up. it makes so much more send. plus, it looks really good on your resume!

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
