Shove it, Gradworks!

So I walk into work on Tuesday morning... late as usual and I sneak into my office.

One of my fellow colleagues walks up to me and says the dreaded phrase, "the boss wants to see you"

Then I think i peed a little...

Anyways, I go into Kelly's (my boss) office. She says that she has bad news. Apparently, HR called her yesterday and stated that gradworks would not extend my contract. So, basically, if I need time off to write my LSAT, i would have to quit. Then she called them "stupid" which is her usual closer when you give my boss bad news like that.

She had already told me to book my flight to Vancouver last week plus I had already paid for the LSAT course I'd be taking there. Here's the exact thought that went through my head,"...shit...".

Yeah, i was pretty choked. Then she told me not to worry cuz she after her meeting with HR she had a little discussion with Lana. The "General Manager". If you are unfamiliar with SaskTel heirarchy, there's only two positions higher than her.... Vice president, and the CEO.

So here's the dilly, Kelly does some fancy juggling with her budget so she could keep me on her staff as a temporary manager. She calls, Lana, sells her on the idea of keeping me on! So, when i return on June 13th I will dumping gradworks and officially returning home under the flag of SaskTel management. Can anyone say pay raise!

Best boss ever.
