Becomming a supervisor

It's happening to me. It is something I've been interested in for a while and I think this is a good taste.

We are migrating our email client at work and I became the lead supervisor for our 15 migration consultants. I don't know exactly how this happened, maybe I exhibited some competance or maybe it's because I'm ROB (ROB ROCKS!). I'm dealing with delayed deadlines, angry customers, disorginization that I can do nothing about (well, I'm doing my best to buck that) and using sneakernet to get some stuff done under the radar so it can actually get done.

I'm actually having a pretty good time with it and find it exciting, and challenging. I'm learing some important lessons in management (people that is) and need to work on my , I'm on fire but need to speak calmly, communication with my crew. I'm pretty good at it with clients, but when the pinch is on, I go into ultrahighspeedrob and need to remedy that.

You are becomming high speed, low drag in all of the important places. Keep this up and you'll have my job. ;)
