When Diana Comes A-Calling

I've had a long history of bad bosses. My current boss is a nice person, well-liked by his junior staff but when it comes to grooming his managers - we are like plants in a badly tended garden.

Luckily for me, I get calls from recruitment consultants (or headhunters as they're normally known)....and the calls are getting more & more frequent. Resignation of a peer at work has given me a promotion opportunity (not to mention a nice pay jump) but if the soil has been left unturned, the plant will be stunted...

Diana (the Roman goddess of hunting) must have been manifesting herself in the many forms of headhunters who have been calling me lately. These are the people whom I have befriended & helped over the years. Who knows - I may be on my way to something worthwhile soon.

Diana...i beseech thee....save my poor shrivelling soulllll........

In the meantime, this shrivelling plant is working towards leaving behind a legacy that she can be proud of :)
