Reorg Reset

Ross Findon

Today feels almost like the first day of work at a new gig again. My team has been expanded and reorganized, I have new responsibilities and a title change. And ... That slight feeling of not knowing what is coming next. Today won't be business as usual.

As I got into work, my current direct manager came over to check on me and get a download of things that happened while she was on PTO and a temperature check on how I was feeling about the change. It is so odd for me to be treated this way. I can't decide if it's courteousness or if they think I am fragile (the only thing making me fragile is keeping my mouth shut and my opinions to myself), or if they genuinely care about what I think and feel about the situation. I'm a contractor, I go with the flow.

Later that same day ...

I apparently already have a reputation as someone with opinions at work. New group. New hands on group director. She's ENFJ, I'm INTJ. This is going to be interesting.
