Well, as you may know I’ve started taking the bus more regularly. Hopefully this will give
Me time to write in this blog more, and maybe cut down on some stress too.

And there has been plenty of that. IT’S wants to tell me it wasn’t a demotion, but let’s be honest, when you go from running a business unit, supervising two employees, to not doing any of that, it’s a demotion.

After a rather rocky start, I think it’s getting better in this reorg. As we all settle in to our roles things are starting to click better,and I’m slowly getting better myself at really working with a supervisor again. In many ways that’s my problem to work through. I’m also learning again that a supervisor is something valuable, especially when there are things to be figured out. It’ll work out, that’s for sure.

And when we have all this figures out, this may work out ok. I’m still having problems figuring out the manager/coordinator split, but I think it’s starting to work out. There is a real need for planning and tech advice in the college, and as that becomes appearent, and people start to use my skillset more I may end up liking this arrangement.

Maybe power wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. Maybe the power I need is doing a job well instead.
