Promoted

I've been promoted at work. Starting Monday my new title is Logistics Analyst. It's a salaried position instead of hourly with no administrative assistant duties what-so-ever.

I now have a boss who lives in the same state, so I'll see him more than once a week. He has a six-year-old kid, and he left at 4:00 yesterday to have more weekend time with his family. He gets it. I like him.

The pay is better, and I get the yearly bonus. Finally I've really escaped the Administrative Assistant career path. Now I'm on a better-paying career path that I haven't pretty much already hit the top end of.

Now I'm paid to analyze things, make sense of them, and explain them in meaningful ways. Heck, I can do that... :-)
