Big week ahead!

I learned this past week that I had gotten the promotion I applied for at work. It takes effect at the beginning of the next pay period on Sunday, August 18th. My new title will be Product Specialist. In this role, I'll function as an intermediary between the supervisor of our group and the agents. My other responsibilities will remain pretty much the same, but I'll do more coaching, handle calls from irate customers when the agents need help, and help to train new agents. It will provide a modest increase in salary, but the main thing is that it will give me a chance to make use of my experience and skills in ways that I can't currently. I'm looking forward to the challenge.

Then on Friday of this next week, we begin our Vernine and Associates Reunion weekend. For those coming in for the weekend, I think it is a good idea to post the agenda. So here goes.

• Friday night, August 23rd, Dinner at Chesapeake's at 7:00 PM
  
• Saturday morning, August 24th, meet at Pat Kessler's clubhouse from 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM.
  
• Saturday afternoon, break for tour of the former offices
  
• Saturday night, Dinner at Carrabba's at 6:30 PM
  
• Saturday night at the moves, return to Pat Kessler's clubhouse for a private showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show
  
• Sunday Brunch, August 25th, at Italian Market and Grill at 11:00 AM
