I am so glad your SIL is taking some of the pressure off you Janet!

It's 4:00 PM and I finally got a chance to talk with my manager. She asked what I'd like for my salary, I told her, and it's done. She said she thinks I'm worth a lot more than that, and asked where I'd like to go from here. She asked if I'd be interested in project management, because she has some jobs she could give me. I didn't expect that! But she thinks I have lots of experience and she can phase me into being a project manager instead of just a drafter. It's more responsibility but I would be able to manage my time so much better instead of having people tell me what to do at the last minute. It's exciting! I told her about my interests in road design so hopefully I can get into some of our highway jobs. She asked if I'm happy working here and I told her I'm so thankful that she lets me bring Layla in because that is a huge cost saver. She said she is happy to have Layla here and she is glad that I am able to talk to her about my problems, and not to hesitate if I am not happy with anything else here. PHEW!

This morning I was worried I would lose my job. Now it turns out I'd only lose it to be promoted lol! I wish I would have slept more last night!
