Mergers and Acquisitions...

So is it me or do I just attract drama in my life? - or - Do I just turn everything into drama? I’m thinking the later…

So more to come (and pictures) from our time with Ray and Carol (“the inlaws!”) – but first more job news…. The intrigue …

When I returned from Beijing I was checking my email only to find out that World Link has been acquired by a Singapore based hospital system and my direct boss is resigning with no replacement in site. Wow! I haven’t seen her in 2 weeks and I come back to this (she has been out of the office – obviously getting a new job - and I was only gone for 4 days!!!) – I thought I was going to see her on Monday, then Tuesday, oh wait, I caught a glimpse for 20 minutes on Wednesday – now she is in more meetings today. She did tell me “not to worry” and that she will be here another 2 weeks or so to transition some more of the clinical stuff to me – more? She really hasn’t told me anything since starting –I still don’t have a password to log into their computer system yet!

So, I’m back in Alice’s office, sharing half a desk, wondering whether or not my closet office will ever be mine or if I get to stay put only to get kicked out at random by people wanting to interview potential employees in the lone "office". Still no business cards or phone extension, not really sure when I’ll see her to ask her my laundry list of questions on what do I need to do about this that and the other… but I’m really just trying to go with the flow – I know … an uncanny response from the world’s biggest worry wart. I’ve been told by friends to hang in there and I think that is just what I’m going to do for now... It doesn’t hurt that I don’t have the fear of being fired – I dare them!
