I got the job! My department manager formally offered it to me yesterday and I formally accepted it. She'll tell the other candidates today and then announce it probably Monday. I'll be starting in the position on Sunday, though. It will be more responsibility and more money, both of which will be good. I'll learn new things. I'll be able to utilize some skills that I haven't been able to in my current position. So, Yay me!

Thanks! I think it's going to be good. It's a little frightening, though, to realize that, at the age of 44, I finally might be starting to have a career instead of just a series of jobs.

I'm currently a Customer Account Executive (CAE) for a cable complany. I do sales, billing, troubleshoot service problems, whatever the customers need. My new job is Lead CAE, which, my supervisor tells me, means I have one foot in management. I'll be kind of an assisitant supervisor. Besides everything I already do, I'll be responsible for evaluating the CAEs on my team and helping with on-the-job training. I'll spend less time communicating with customers, and more time helping the other employees be better at communicating with customers.
