Acting (like an adult?)

So today was the first day Jim isn't there. It also happens to be my first day acting* in his place. I now have a taste of what my life as a boss would be. And I have to tell you, there is a large amount of busy work but nothing seemingly hard. To be fair I have just had a small taste of it, but I think my thoughts on the matter were mostly correct. It isn't a hard job from the technical side. I would guess it is mostly time management and learning the lay of the land.

It is still kind of scary though. It seems so... adult. I have always taken responsibility but on my terms. While the decision to move forward is mine, a lot of what I have to deal with will not be of my own choosing.

The stage is set though. Too many people apparently have laid the groundwork and the positions are many. The opportunity will come again to be sure but it is merely running the clock at this point. I have matured as much as I can in my position and it is time for a new challenge.

Good Bye Youth.I knew you when.


*While I understand the term, it always conjures images of Dressing and copying everything somebody does. I wonder if they make Jim suits size XL?
