I'm now officially the Queen Secretary Bee of an advertising firm. Yup. It's a job I did many moons ago, and was damn good at it I might add, but I honestly didn't think I'd be returning to it. However, times are what times are. It's an amazing opportunity and I know that I'm lucky to have the job. I will admit that I had a pretty serious meltdown though. I can honestly say I have been mourning the loss of my teaching career. I mean, I thought of myself as "a teacher." Because it wasn't just a job you know? I'm not "a secretary." I don't identify with the position in that way. I am a person who happens to do this to pay the bills now.
At least my "teacher drag" (pencil skirts and tie neck blouses) translates well to the new title, I get to be in the city every day instead of commuting 180 miles, I think I can learn a lot from my new boss and I can be financially secure. All good things right?
Now, off to book his tee time...
