Happy New Year! I used to start every year with a laundry list of resolutions, all of which basically added up to making myself into some unattainable ideal of perfect me - and usually fell by the wayside no later than January 3rd... So, what do I really want? I keep saying (to myself only) that I want to write. So that is my one & only resolution for 2011. Try to keep a blog and try to locate my voice and get it down - onscreen, if not on paper anymore. I am using my new netbook to write this; the keyboard is smaller than what I am used to and it keeps doing an annoying thing of jumping up to a previous line and inserting text there, I am not sure what I am hitting on the keyboard that makes it do that.
So,back to work tomorrow. Starting a new position and have to negotiate new salary too, I am nervous about that. It will be very different at work between the new role and the new manager. I have done over 10 yrs "hard labor" with a very difficult manager. It is a point of pride to me that I am the only one in the company to survive so long with her. I should be purely happy that our working relationship is being phased out- there will be a several month transition when I will still have to deal with her but not in person- but it feels weird too. She is the most difficult person I have ever known - she browbeats and bullies her employees,she lies about everything, makes unreasonable demands, and is just basically impossible to work for. But she gets results and after 10 years, I am not sure how to not be in that environment.
This keyboard is driving me nuts Why does it keep jumping back up into previous lines?
OK, at least I have done a post, Tomorrow is Jan 3rd- will there be another?
