the week in Chief-dom
Sep. 7th, 2012 08:55 pmThis week, my being the Chief in charge of our team's production support involved no averting of catastrophes or of resolving them. It meant making sure that there'd be three more environments in which new projects can be developped and tested. That brings us to a total of seven such environments, and I'm proud to have made it happen. There was not one bit of creativity involved though. It was a matter of my knowing what was needed and having people take care of it. I *am* good at this, but I hope that my higherups aren't beginning to believe that's all I'm good at. Next time I meet the boss, even over the phone, I'll need to point out that I am very good at developing and creating, which is more stimulating, and which is the shiny stuff that gets noticed. Again though, I'm *damned* proud of what I accomplished this week.
