I wonder if I should move faster?

Had a team dinner last night.



Me and one more girl were working last night but we came early. The rest (3 more) were already at work so we just all hooked up.

It was good. First time this particular TL had ever done anything like this i.e. take her team out. She also invited our head of section, whom we dont see often. Conversation was funny, ribald, and more importantly, extremely frank. We're all facing the same demoralising management at work in our department; only thing is, the section head is a really outspoken women. Fiesty, earthy, approachable.

And she's so fed up she's leaving by Dec09 or Jan10. That's her own personal deadline.

Opps.

It's one thing for us grunts to grumble and mumble about bad management. We do it discretly when management is out of sight and out of earshot. But this HOS is doing it openly in front of her team.

I don't know if it's a good thing (my personal opnion is being vindicated) or a bad thing (who will be our team's buffer now?). Should I treat my job search more urgently? After everything's been said and done, I am not really in danger of losing my job anytime soon. If the worst happens, I have a minimum of 4 months in which to get hired again.


Oh well. Guess we'll see....
