Well the time has come for me to make a decision...
Do I move up the ladder or do I stay where I am?
There are pros and cons for each side of the equation...will I ever sleep again? That is the question.
My boss finally told her boss that she was leaving. Which leaves an immediate opening for Manager.
Yesterday THE boss asked me if I was interested in the position? I answered yes, but said I had to talk to my husband. Brian and I chatted about whether I would be happy or not? Do I like my job right now? Do I like the people I work with right now? Could I do this job? All these are answered with a yes. It can't be about the money...it has to be more. Although the money is pretty good. It would certainly help us out, and it would also be a blessing to those that we can give it away too. Can I be the organized person that I need to be?
The other side of the equation is the time commitment. There are expectations of me...travelling to Vancouver every 2-3 months for buying. Maintaining the store for the start and then building on some of the ideas that are out there for building a business. Being on call 24/7. I will need to have this staff plus a few more that can support me and what I will be trying to do. If my children were small this would be a no, but they are almost grown and I need to have something for me.
So this morning I will call the boss and tell him yes. I would love to have this opportunity.
