I'm stunned

Talk about out of the blue. My manager just called me in his office. I'm now going to be the risk management officer for my new pod, instead of an administrative trust officer. I'll be a lower level for taking phone calls (meaning I'll be less likely to get them), and I'll get to do the stuff I'm GOOD at! No raise, but this position may give me a chance to do well in my job and to actually earn a raise/bonus at some point. I've still got to hang in until that starts, but surely God won't give me this opportunity and not help me stick around for it. So, yay, that's good news! At least it will be a little relief. I'm still kind of stunned, which is why I'm not bouncing up and down.

That's AWESOME news, Lisa! Maybe that's why you haven't had much luck in finding other positions--you're meant for better things where you are!

Congratulations!

Thanks, Amber! Maybe you're right. If nothing else, at least I may not feel like I want to throw up coming to work every day - that will be progress. :-)

It's nothing I formally applied for, although I'd expressed an interest in that area since this whole new model concept was brought up. So, maybe someone finally listened when I said I suck at the people part of this job.
