Presently, I work as a kindergarten teacher assistant in the same school my children attend. Last week the principal asked to meet with me. I was a little hesitant at first, but I promptly agreed. You never know when your boss says, "I need to speak with you about some thing." I figured he must of caught wind that I was wearing jeans to work three times last week while he was on vacation. I must be in for a good reprimanding. He asked me if I wanted to walk to Starbucks for coffee and then he let me have it.

WHAT A BLOW TO THE EGO!

I MEAN A GOOD BLOW!

He asked me how things were going in the kindergarten class and said he didn't want to lose me next year. He said, "I feel as though we are not utilizing your talents, Mindy." I thought to myself, "I kinda like this." I replied, "You've got my attention now. What did you have in mind?" His reply, "I am working on creating a position and I think you are just the person for it. The school does not have a Director of Development and Training.

Like I said, Good energy in....bad energy on its way out!
