I have some exciting news!
Whoo!
This exciting news relates to a blog I posted earlier which you may or may not have read - (Too Much Work Makes Millie A Dull Girl)! Well- it seems the powers that be have seen my plight..(and quite possibly heard / witnessed) and have decided that something needs to be done!
Of course the answer was to give Millie more work! Then pick the shocked girl up, dusted her down, provided her with caffine & chocolate and then give the good news!
I get a FTE / Minion / Pleb / Data Monkey!
Apparently I have been doing such a good job on my current project managing role that I am getting more of teh same and a person to help me!
I am now a people manager of one people! Whoo whoo! This does fill me with the most excitedness of excitement as I did not have any aspiration towards people management due to my direct and oft foot in mouth approach, in fact the response from my ever lovin hubby was 'Gawd 'elp 'em!' yup so bad that he became yokel!
The fun part now is the Job Description & thinking of things my person can do! (Work is a must - OBVIOUSLY) but...
Must speak Klingon
Lightsabre as special skills?
Abilty to fly?
Must have read all the Harry Potter books - there will be a test?
Any further suggestions?
On a not so fun note this means:
More admin :(
More HR policy type things to learn and do (ZzzzZzzz)
More responsibility (!)
Acting more serious and growned up!
Less Zombies!
W00t, congratulations Ms Beanz, a solid step on the ladder I think.
ReplyDeleteGood news indeed. Now you just have to make sure that your slave isn't as annoying as my Nemesis :-)
ReplyDeleteIf you're asking for a Klingon speaker, may I suggest you also ask for someone who speaks Thermian too? And, of course, someone with an interest in the ongoing struggle against zombie domination?
Today, one underling; tomorrow, the world! :-)
Of course its a fine line to find someone with a brain (Will protect from Zombies!) who will use it for the greater good (I.E the team) and one who will use it to upsurp me!
ReplyDeleteEeee taking over the world using mainly spoons! Rusty Spoons (Sorry Odd Bob!)
he he! The spoon quote has spread to blog land!! Woo hoo!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I do feel for the poor pleb chosen to be your minion! I have a feelignt hey will quickly be introduced to such insanity as: Chuck, Big Bang Theory and Plants vs Zobies, how will they ever have time to play your slave?
You clearly know young Millie all too well, Bob - she tried to get me hooked on two of those three.
ReplyDeleteSo far, I'm continuing to assert my independence ...
