We are still very much behind with salaries, but luckily, the two guys that were retained with me are very patient and are just nice people. Delegating and pushing people to work are not really my specialty, but I guess those actions will be needed to be done for our team to survive. Though the other side of the potential 'unleashing of the slave driver' in me, I need to push management to take care of my guys with catching up with the pay and supporting us in this transition period of sorts after a drastic downsizing. And I have to continue my work too as a senior designer. A big exercise in time management, being responsible for others and probably some office politics.
Today was the first day of my new role, which ended with a long task list for the next two weeks on my hand. The day went well, I think, and hopefully the next days would too. I hope my next blog entry will be something really positive, or fun, or not work related. But nonetheless, I reckon that I am still a very composed person; trying to keep a positive outlook always. I still believe that at the end of this long dark tunnel there is light. And probably a pool, a party and many things bright and bubbly.
