Long chat with my Boss and the lady who would be my new manager today so now I'm pondering. It does solve the problem with working with so many noisy youngsters where I am now (impossible to concentrate) and gets me away from the current manager who I get on with very well but can't work with. She makes me feel like a junior yet I'm older & more experienced. She doesn't mean too, it's just the way she is but I've had enough of feeling like her minion.
I still do the job I'm doing which I did before we merged,(claims), and would cover for her when she's off sick or on holidays but my manager will be the lady in the accounts dept. and for the claims, I would be directly under the Boss (MD). The difficult bit is that the claims will still cross over from time to time and I want to avoid an "atmosphere" if I possibly can.
It is very flattering to be asked and wanted by the accounts side and without being a smartypants, I am the only one who knows the computer system we will all be using soon inside out................ so they need me to stay. The Boss actually apologised to me today for me being in the position I'm in now and feeling the way I do and made it very clear that he doesn't want me to leave. There are lots of things I do in the office that no-one else can too so the question now is do I stay or do I walk away?
No-one but me can answer that question of course but it's not an easy decision to make...................
Sorry for the long post - it's kind of helped writing it all down though!
