Exciting News

Not the news I’ve been waiting for, but awesome news nonetheless.

B got the promotion he’s been waiting for!  He has had all of the responsibilities of the promotion position (Office Manager) without the title or salary for a couple years now.  Because he moved into the position so quickly after he was hired, they decided to hold off on the benefits until he had put in more time at the company.  Luckily, they decided that the first quarter of 2012 was the perfect time to promote him.

There are some awesome perks that come with this promotion, namely a company car (no more paying for gas to and from work!) and getting bumped up to the next profit-sharing bonus level.  He also is now salaried instead of hourly, but it’s kind of a drawback - being paid hourly, he was getting 20 hours of overtime on every check because of the mandatory 50 hour work week.  Being salaried means he’s now missing out on the extra overtime money, so his paychecks will be slightly less than we’re used to, but the increase in his monthly bonuses will cover what he’s losing.  Hooray!
