New job?
mood: 
pensive
pensiveOut of the blue, I get an e-mail today from our new CFO. I quote:
"As you now undoubtedly know,
Now first off, This was a total surprise to me. So I'm not really getting the "As you undoubtedly know" bit. What, do they think decisions that get made behind closed boardroom doors somehow propagate out to the rest of the company by osmosis? Second, I'm not sure when I became a 'function'. Or, at least, if we're talking about functions, shouldn't that cut both ways? "Your function now reports to my function. My function would like to sit down with your function next week to discuss it". But semantics and professional courtesy aside, what does this mean for me?
It seems that our current CIO has been relegated to application development (not a bad decision, since that's where he has background, and what he pays attention to) and I am now reporting to the CFO directly. No-one has said 'CIO' to me yet, but it seems like that's a good enough description of the role I'll be in - we'll see when I meet with him next week.
And I guess condolences if otherwise. :-)
