On May 1, I will be a new Assistant Director at CLS. I will still be in my same dept, and keep my big database project, but other than that, I will have all new responsibilities. It is a huge and very exciting step.
I was offered the position a few weeks ago, and said yes, but it wasn't totally clear what that would mean, or what my responsibilities would be. (We were reorganizing the dept to function with one less person, so it was all fuzzy.) The job while offered/accepted was still tentative.
Today I was told to order cards, so I guess this is telling me that the position is official, and so is my switch. In some strange way, I feel like all the ducks lined up and I actually have an adult job for the first time. Or at least a job that relates to all the crazy school I went to.
I feel really lucky to work with people who show that they value my contribution in a very tangible way. They didn't have to make this offer, or try to make me happy with what was going on.
