Winds of change?

Someone in the comments section asked about the quietly-kept upcoming Watch Manager promotions, and who's getting the job. The Ops Floor as a whole seems to be pleased with the rumored choices. But we won't add to the rumor mill on that one.

Word that "Our Fearless Leader" is on the way out? Can it be true?

Supervisor bids open (closing on 03Oct06). How many are they hiring? That one brings up another e-mail from a reader:

Subject: Supervisor Applications

Not my idea.........but love this one! Co-worker said, "let's ALL apply for the position and make them deal with ALL that paperwork, scheduling of test dates/times, etc!".
If only we could get 100% co-operation on this one....................tooooooooo funny!

Funny. Would they all have to go to the OEMC Personnel section getting moved away from our building? (Just keep the address out of the comments section, no security compromises)

But we hear that there are many changes on the horizon. We just hope it's a positive transition for all. Maybe OEMC Administration is finally making moves in the right direction, instead of putting all of its stock and faith in a person whose main objectives were to justify her position and screw the working stiffs.
