I’ve been away from this blog for two weeks. Now I’m back. Seems like I’ve been away for the longest time.
Took the whole family – wife, kids and parents – to the island resort for the weekend. We had fun. That’s one for the Happy Home Project.
One of my colleague, L, resigned. Turns out that she had been offered, and has accepted, the job I didn’t want. I’m a bit sorry to see her go, because she’s a friend, but that’s what the working world is like these days. People keep moving around – they don’t stay long.
Her departure means that my chances of promotion early next year just improved tremendously. It’s not merely that she was a competitor and that now she is leaving. It’s also that the management becomes more conscious that the market demand is high for professionals in our field, and they need to do something to keep me. Like, promote me.
