Back at it again

After talking to his former coworker (who got the job HE originally applied for), Daddy emailed the company yesterday and a couple other people want to interview him. We are scrambling to find someone to watch Little Man (a glimpse into what is to come when he is in daycare) sometime the first week in August. I can't miss time as it's month end. Well maybe if it's before the 3rd but who knows.

At my job lots of changes are happening. With budget cuts and letting go of people our business office is being restructured. Depending on who you are (meaning how hard you work and how well you know and want to do your job) this is could be bad thing.

I got the hugest compliment from my boss when I found out my coworker is our new supervisor and I was also apparently in the running to be a supervisor. The only reason I didn't get it is because I'm so new. Which is fine. I would have taken on the job with pride and would have been shaking in my boots at the same time. This is bad for our current supervisor. She's kind of getting demoted. She really was not a good fit for being a supervisor. She just can't separate friendship and work.

I on the other hand will be working Medicare A AND B. My coworker who handles the B is not strong enough. She is not on top of things and they are seeing that. Her new position is clerical, entering cash receipts and doing insurance verification. I am not sure how she is going to handle this (she already knows she is handling cash receipts but I don't think she fully realizes I'm getting B for both facilities). I'm sure she'll be in my cube complaining after her meeting and our department meeting on Friday afternoon (I had my meeting this afternoon with my boss).

After this long week all that is happening is making me happy. I love what I do and as scared as I am that sometimes I don't know it all I am doing a great job and they are seeing that. Also, I was thinking this morning (remember it's been a long week) about Daddy's job and if I really should stay at my job. I was worried about advancing in the company. I honestly didn't see any advancement opportunities for me. I thought of the supervisor position but figured it was out of reach. My boss commented that it is not out of reach and I would definitely be considered down the road if/when people are promoted (or someone leaves). That makes me feel good.

Life is looking up. Now if only we could get through our agency. We are having issues with them being more worried about money and the secretary has NOT called or emailed me back since we talked last Friday. Daddy and I aren't happy and are ready to pull our application and ask for a refund.

I'll keep you posted.
