F1 Diffuser AppealCategory: sports
I don't know how many of you follow Formula 1 (especially now the US Grand Prix doesn't run anymore after the fiasco a couple of years ago), but this piece of news just made my day:
And as we're in the UK for a portion of Sunday, I may even be able to watch some of the race (at least the start) before we have to head for the airport.
I'm so excited!

PromotionCategory: work
Looks like I may be getting a Promotion at work (subject to CEO's approval)
The interview yesterday was for a Project Manager position - technically a step up from the Business Analyst role I'm supposed to do today (which actually includes Project Management anyway). It would involve a grade increase, so a little extra moolah and I would FINALLY get business class travel again for work and pleasure after they rudely took it away 2 1/2 years ago.
Thing is, I don't LIKE Project Management. I'm a tinkerer - I like to be involved in the nitty-gritty aspects like testing, development, design etc.
Whatever, we'll have to see what happens. Frankly I don't trust anything at this company until I see it written on paper, and even then it's suspect.

Congrats to you and Timika
Congrats to you and Timika
congratulations! :o)
Congrats. Just make sure not to let your hair get too pointy.
Congrats, Rory. I know what you mean about being a tinkerer, but maybe you'll find you enjoy your new PM role more than you previously thought.
So If I read this right you may get a promotion to something you don't like doing, so I say turn it down. I don't know how that would be looked at, but in many companies people who get promotions that they don't ask for should turn them down. But maybe you would like it for other reasons.
Congratulations!
congrats!
