Better Days Ahead

Thanks to my friends in the pharmaceutical industry I'm feeling better today. I'm still not 100%, but I'm definitely better than the past few days.
So, I had a meeting with my boss on Wednesday about my future with 'the firm' and my possible options of places to move too. It was a productive discussion. She told me of two other groups, besides the one I've been looking pretty hard at, that will likely be looking for people in the very near future. One of those is called the FLC (Finance Leveraged Center). This would be a completely different environment and job than I have now. It would be much more focused on the financial analyst side rather than splitting my time between analyst, data entry, and general administrative type duties. So that has some potential.
She, my boss, has a meeting today to discuss, with her peers, personel movement. She told me that she will be talking about me and trying to find out what the best fit for me may be. Right now, I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she will truley look for what is in my best interest. She has a track record of disregarding this infavor of others interests. But over the past few months she has surprised me with several positive things she's done for me and the team. So I'll cut her some slack and see where this goes. I'll fill you in as I learn more.

Take no prisoners, Rob! Even if that means taking her pet parrot hostage and teaching it to say "Rob deserves a promotion" until a new job (or the requisite $3 million dollar bonus) is procured, it's worth it. If that doesn't work, steal her windshield wipers. You can't drive in Michigan without wipers.
