Today is my first day in my new role as the department manager of our real estate research group; woohoo! :biggrin: A bit of it was luck/good timing I suppose; one of the big directors left, so my boss moved up to his role, and I'm taking her role. Exciting and challenging at the same time, which is good I think.

Treated myself to a racing wheel for GT5 last night in celebration, but that's for another thread.

I've been pretty quiet about it, but had to tell someone. Why not you jokers :smile:

    Congrats! I waited 4 months for mine but then i got a new supervisor so now I am proving myself all over again for something that was certain to happen 3 months ago now, now It is 2 weeks! of course $6 more an hour is probably something you should have to prove worthy of!

    Wow, thanks guys. It's been a good day. And a bit crazy too.

    Hahha, I've been pondering the 360 route Demi, but I've just re-commited to my PS3 by picking up that wheel.

    and I hear you Biron; mo money= mo good lunches, mo toys, etc :wink:

    Haha, Joe, funny stuff. She's actually really cool and intelligent (and married with kids for the low brow portion of that joke) so it's made the transition an easy one.
