I finally received the telephone call I've been dreading yesterday. As was my prediction, I didn't get the promotion for which I applied. Unfortunately, I found out because the position my competition held was posted as vacant before I'd been called and told I did not get the job. So, I did the math and figured it out before my boss called me. That was definitely not his intention and he apologized profusely for it. He gave his reasons for why I wasn't picked and said it was the hardest decision of his DM career thus far. I'm not judging that reasoning, nor am I going to go into it on here. If you have questions, ask and I'll discuss it one-on-one.
So, I have no plans for now other than to be the best I can be at my job, improve the area he said was the deciding factor in the decision, and make President's Club again. I've got a good chance of it considering how we're doing thus far. The trip for managers this year is to the Ritz Carlton on Grand Cayman (see above picture). I'm not actively looking to move until I know whether or not I make it. I'm eligible as long as I'm hear through the end of March. Buddy and I are both content to stay here that long if we suspect we will get such a fantastic trip out of our patience. We'll see.
