psyche29Well, holy shit.
There was a meeting this morning for my little team - me, my two other cash application peeps, and the two people from the cash office, one of whom is the supervisor for us. Also in attendance was our current manager - the bane of everyone's working existence - and the hospital's new controller (not comptroller - I verified).
And beginning Monday, all five of us will be reporting to the controller instead of the collections manager.
Picture me with my jaw on the floor.
I'm looking at this as a good thing, but there are clearly SO. MANY. THINGS that no one thought of when this decision was made. I brought up at least three different things that our current manager should have considered and so obviously didn't, judging by the new person's stricken "deer in the headlights" look.
She thought it was going to be a straight up transfer, but there are more things involved than they seemed to consider; job classes/titles, the possibility of moving us down to the basement, and the file system that I alone understand or have access to store, to name a few things that are - or should be - Relevant To Their Interests.
I'm currently most obsessed with the idea that someone who speaks English as a first language will finally be in charge, and seems willing to hear what I have to say instead of talking over me. I think my hopes are a little higher than past gained wisdom might be comfortable with, but I can't help it.
Still, we'll see where this goes, and how. There are Many Things to discuss, several of which no one considered. It may not necessarily be smooth, but I'm hoping that's a light at the end of the tunnel and not a shitload of oncoming traffic ready to flatten me again.
We Shall See.
