A big change at work today. I have a new manager! I am excited, actually. Why? Because my new manager will be a guy that I like. I have been close with Tom ever since I started. I connected with him right at the interview. I even sent him a personal note that I am joining Markit because of him. I think we can have a good working relathionship. I think we can accomplish a lot. I think I can shine under him. So what happened? Vadim decided he wants to do something else. He is moving to a Quotes department. He was good: direct and candor. However, he could not really explain technical stuff.
All in all, I am excited. We have two people in the department right now. So, in a way, I moved up as well. We’ll see what happens. Things could go worse, but hey, the job market is good. I am excited!
I have to deliver and I will work hard to do the best I can. I actually have to read a new book on improving productivity. I will read it by the end of the summer.
