a little bit of goodness

So today at work one of our new sites had a grand opening and the new Commissioner (among several other people) were able to come and celebrate with us. People got up, did some speeches. The local mayor was there in addition to some VIP's at the Department, and there was a lot of pressure/expectation about this little event. It was one of the first opportunities the Commissioner had to see the work we've been doing, and it was also one of the first opportunities folks I work with could see if he might support our work under his reign.

I've been kinda stressed about how this would go- I wasn't part of the planning for this particular event, and I therefore had no idea how it would go. But it turns out it went really well. And the Commissioner said he really liked what he saw so far. So I'm feeling a little bit easier about the longevity of my job now. Not that I think it's all roses, but I'm starting to feel like there might be some opportunities for me and my team under this new boss. And that is such a relief that I wanted to dance all the way home. But instead I drove my car home and sang the radio songs at the top of my lungs. I'll celebrate a little bit this weekend.

I just had to tell you.
