Hi everyone-
I just applied for a promotion at my job. I did it because my current job isn't stressful, exhausting or chaotic enough- I had to go and throw my name in the hat for the Executive Assistant position... If I get this job not only will I have a full head of white hair within 2 years, but I will also be making enough money that DH can go to school and not worry about working at all- unless he just wants a part time job at a woodworking tool store, or something like that...
I guess prayers that the owners would be open to interviewing me. They have told me that they think I'm awesome and am the perfect addition to their company...
I just found out Tuesday that my office Buddy, Rachel *the current exec assistant) was packing up her life and moving to San Fransciso because she's burnt out and too young to have a job this insane, and she wants to start over where she doesn't know anyone, etc. etc... I was pretty sad- I actually cried when I got home yesterday because she's the first girl/woman I've ever worked with that wasn't about stabbing my back, lying about me, trying to get ahead in the company by bashing me, she isn't a gossip, and she doesn't hold it against me when I need to blow off steam- and now she's leaving!
We have a great working realationship and really get eachother and how things need to be done, we get along well with our assistant, Jess- but I've only been with this company for 2 months so we're really gonna miss her.
She emailed Todd and David and told them that she really thinks I should be the one to replace her and it would be easier to train someone for my job than it would be to hire someone and train them to do her job in about 1-2 weeks time... So send your happy prayers this way and I'll let you know how things go.
So- I'm insane- I'd be doing everything for two very young, rich, insane guys with a vision to grow their company faster than we can keep up with things... am I nuts, or what?
