Re: Give Me Liberty or Give Me the Big Cats 9/15/07 (or Give Me Both!)
Hi guys! I think the interview went well. I was very comfortable and I feel that I did my best, so we can just see what happens from here. He did tell me that I should know by Friday. So, continue to send good vibes my way and I'll let you know as soon as I know more!
The process is pretty simple, probably because I know the director a bit. I just applied, and I know my boss put in a good word for me during the monthly director's meeting, and then I got a call from our recruiter to set me up for an interview with the director. Now if I was interviewing for a director's job there would be two rounds of interviews, with one of those interviews being the panel of directors.
Thanks for asking - and like I said, keep those good thoughts headed my way!
So for all of you managers....I feel your pain and I've been feeling it a lot lately! Today I couldn't get out of work because one of my regional directors (inflated title - he really is lucky to have a management role) calls me at a couple minutes before six to tell me that the person that he is trying to suspends "strongly disagrees" with the suspension. I had to tell him that we investigated the situation and we strongly agree that he needs to be suspended. So, suspend him, and let him know how to file a grievance. I honestly think that if I wasn't there, this director would've wimped out in the middle of the suspension. Grow some cajones, if you know what I mean! I would've fired him, you are lucky that you just got to suspend him!
Dee - glad things are going well. Please tell Doris we'd love to hear from her once in a while. That little puzzlegeek! Or Doris, if you are lurking, say something once in a while! We think about you often (we don't talk about you like we talk about George) and we hope you are doing well. And hi to Julie so she doesn't feel excluded!
Jim, you are such a great dad and live in mechanic! I am sure the kids appreciate what you are doing for them.
Hi Regina and Tommy - what are you guys up to for the 4th???
So George, you are a popular guy. See, Tommy and Regina talk about you daily, Greg and I talk about you daily. That must feed your ego a bit....or make you paranoid!
Ok - I'll check in more over the next couple of days. I'm home Wednesday and Thursday and I have a feeling that I am going to get bored here at the house!
