Every time I got pushed into management it came with more responsibility AND put on salary, which was a nice way to get more hours out of me for no more money. But I didn't get the travel which i would like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what I'm in for, but it will be worth it. I'll be back at HQ the week after next for some meetings, some fun, back in the NE. 4 minutes ago, dtel said: Congratulations, it would really suck to have to go out to Hawaii to fix a problem. You should be celebrating. Thanks dtel. Without writing a novel, the whole experience has been humbling. It's a goal I've been shooting for. I can't wait to show them what I can do.

Show them, do the best you can, I know sometimes people expect monkeys to jump from you arse but do what you can do and they will probably be happy. Something made them think you're capable so they are expecting you to succeed. And have fun, and it becomes not fun get out, life's too short. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a nice promotion today from the President of the company I work for. I'm going to be one of those Management types. I'm covering 7 states in the Western US. I've got Hawaii and Alaska mixed in there, breaks my heart. Will be getting some new gear soon. Celebrating this evening, for sure! Congrats my friend. Wishing you much success and hoping that you enjoy your job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really rough you are going to have to go to Hawaii to supervise. How will you survive in that wilderness? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
