There was a retirement here earlier this month, and I’ve moved into the retiree’s responsibilities (sorta - I get to keep some of my current projects as well) so I’ve got a new boss and stuff like that. It’ll be a switch from what I’ve been working on, and I’ve been assured that if it doesn’t work out, there’s always room for me in the group I’m currently in :) It’s exciting and a little scary, but all in a good way.

That’s not to say that I don’t enjoy what I’m doing now, I just think there’s an opportunity here, and if I didn’t take a stab at it, I’d wind up regretting it down the road. I’ve worked with my new boss before (actually he was my supervisor when I first started here.) and we get along well, so there’s no concerns there. It’ll be a new challenge, and a new group of users to attempt to appease, so it’s a new chapter in my employment here.
