A tie, oh my. I was proud when I got a job where I had to wear a coat and tie every day, but was really glad when I was able to take it off. Now I hate the days I have to wear socks and my wife keeps fussing at me and asking if I have underwear on.

The secret to leadership is to make each one feel important and the more people you get in the boat with you, the less likely they are to drill a hole in it.

Congratz on the promotion! Taking a step up is a double edged sword however, more responsibility with less reward.

I have been working at my current position for 7 years and 8 months, to the day, and tomorrow I start a new position. It is the same organization but a different department. It is a promotion and completely different from what I’ve been doing 20 something years. I will be in a supervisor role and no longer a technician. I will be learning a new application as well as becoming the technical manager of the application and I will have 23 under me that know their stuff. Remember, you don’t have to be the smartest one but you need to surround yourself with smart people. Luckily, I know most everyone and so far I have received nothing but great reaction, even from others that interviewed and did not get the promotion.

May your new job be filled with stimulating challenges successfully met!
