My boss came back from a week away today. Before he went I said that as I have been there almost 3 months, we should schedule a review meeting.

He decided to do it today shock

I said " well, I'm happy, how about you?"

He replied "No, I'm not happy, I'm delighted!"

I'm very grin grin grin

Oh phoenix I am delighted to hear that. I cannot believe that you have been there 3 months already. I agree, a salary increase is next on the list. It makes a difference when you want to go to work.

Well done Phoenix It sounds as if it's a relaxed and rewarding sort of place to work in. People are out to create "beautiful things" rather than just making money and therefore the whole ethos is very different.

What did he do Phoenix when he got himself back up off the floor? grin

Well done, it is wonderful to feel so appreciated and to have the job satisfaction that you so obviously have in this job, yes, ask for the pay rise, he can always say no, but I bet he won't. smile flowers

That is such good news Phoenix - after all your false starts over the last few years - I have followed you over the years but in a previous guise as it were - this is the re-invented me!!
You deserved to get a job you really enjoy as you were so tenacious in your search. X x

Thank you all!

I had more compliments today from the head tutor, a very quiet chap not given to to idle chat, so I'm feeling even more grin

Stans I couldn't get your link to work?

You'll be taking over the Company at this rate!grin

I hardly think so roses grin but I am very happy there (even though his nibs had "one on him" today, but even that worked out really well, I was on brownie points for noticing!) and I do feel respected and valued, which I think every employee should feel, if a boss is doing things right.
