Last week, during a work dinner, my direct supervisor commented that I should apply for an open position, also reporting to her. I don’t have any experience directly working in our field, so I brushed it off. Today, though, she pulled my colleague into her office for a closed-door meeting about moi. Apparently she really wants me to apply and was asking him how to persuade me. It’s a lateral move, most likely no increase in salary, but I’d be writing writing writing AND I’d stop being viewed in an “administrative” capacity. Basically, it would get all of the annoying customers (and co-workers lol) off my back. I’d have a much tighter schedule, more deadlines, but I’d be writing writing writing.
I think I’ll do it.

I make the same as everyone else — why are they going to pay me more??? I’ll just be surprised if the big guy goes for this.
