The other day I finally got promoted at work ! how much amazing news is that. My manager came back froom holiday and called me upstairs into the meeting room. I was a little o_O at why he was calling me there. I thought either he would be telling me off, which couldn’t be the case as I had done nothing wrong. Or he was going to say how well things went with the project I was handling. But I wasn’t too enthused to hear a thanks. I know it had gone well.
Anyway he had an organizational chart which was covered up. So he started to mention how because of the boss leaving and a new one starting we’re restructuring. It meant that he would answer direct to the new lady boss. The he uncovered more of the chart and it showed my name, but I had a promoted title of supervisor which I don’t currently have.
He congratulated me, I was super ecstatic as it was very kewl news as its been quite a long time coming.
Today I had an ol’ colleague with me and she mentioned an ol’ boss who had lost two of his staff. He struggles to keep his staff as he is a bit too overbearing. And he had been a boss to both of us before. So we wrote an email to a girl who works with him. Obviously it said a few things it shouldn’t have. So we wrote it, changed a few minor things before sending it off.
I got a automated reply back straight away saying the girl is on holiday and its gone to the ol’ boss. Oh fcuk!
A few mins later he sent a very straight email letting us know she wasn’t in and he had got the mail. From the tone of the email it was apparent he was super pissed.
I need to start being much more careful! ;x
Congratulations !!!
Well… Now the last one is a little big embarrassing as a situation ^^ …Sucky forward system . this thing is dangerous ^^
Hoping the ol’ boss didn’t take it too seriously .
Anyways I don’t dounbt your high sense of management & diplomacy will cover this out : )
Specially now that your new title is attached to your signature and your tie ; )
We’re waiting for the cake and the drink to celebrate this properly uh, Mister Super !
Congrats!! and be careful, words can cut deeper than a sword:)

Congratulation Yas! This is indeed great news and I am so happy for you. Of course, you will now have more responsibility in the new role but I bet you like that new title.
