Work

Must be a time for change and upheaval.

Damon is working on a proposal to become a the Planetarium Manager/Director. His mentor and boss has recently resigned, leaving a big hole in the education department at Union Station. We are hoping that this will give Damon the opportunity to make some well needed adjustments to the way things are being run.

At my work, we are being inundated with large projects. This is great for the business, but rumor has it that I will be asked to come back full-time.

I have suspected that my work would ask me back to full-time for a while now. I had decided I would get righteously angry as I am doing my job now for a fraction of the price in a fraction of the time that it was before. Thereby saving the business $10000 at least. Coming back full-time would mean I would have to daycare, and that is not something I am ready to foot the bill for.

So on the other horizon is a former employer. One who treats me decently and may be able to offer me part-time at a very acceptable pay. The set-back? I have some personal issues with the way this business is run. It is a good business and is out to help people, but it is wrought with nepotism, back-biting, and office politics.

What should I hope for? I am not sure. I suppose if I could have "anything" I would want Damon to get a huge raise at work that would allow me to stay home. However, that is a bit unrealistic.

So- do I hope that my boss will not ask me to come back full-time? Or do I hope for a well paying job at a place that challenges my personality to some extent...

Or do I just quit hoping and just wait. I don't like waiting. I don't like having energy balled up in my chest and brain- taking up valuable space that could be occupied by iPod nano commercials.
