It was a banner day at work today. The new President unveiled his plan for the company's growth and all, and it was bold and sweeping to say the least. Can you say, complete reorganization and flattening of the hierarchy? It's a mouthful, and it's hard for many to swallow.
But not for me. I'm not scared of change.
The last couple of weeks have been grueling for my department, but not me so much, unless you count sympathy pains. Since I wasn't privy to the high level secret stuff, I just had to witness the others tearing their hair out. I'm glad the plan's finally out in the the open, and in motion.
The next few months will be whirlwind of activity at work.
Good news on my husband's job front, as well. He had his performance review, got a hulking raise, and has an interview for an interoffice transfer coming up, but not for a couple of weeks.
If he gets the new job, he won't be doing this shift work anymore. It'll be a regular 8-5, M-F job. He hasn't worked that schedule in more than 3 years. It will be a big change for us.
My son is really hoping for the new job for his dad. His schedule has become so much a part of our lives that I often forget that 3 or 4 days a week my son sees him for about half an hour. And I enjoy the nights of a lot less cooking when my husband's not home for dinner, but it has no upside for the little guy -- he just feels his absence.
I don't think I ever understood the pain divorce causes a child until witnessing the comfort and well-being my son derives from us being together, and whole, as a family.
