Hi folks.
Twelve hours ago I was on the verge of whining about a hijaked thread.
Then I read it. (LMAO @ KillarneyRose and her descriptions. Lady, you are in the wrong job--get into writing!!!)
As open as my eyes were to the AI process when I started, I found out the hard way that it's not going to be as easy as I thought.
It's looking like the first org I approached is not going to work. Enough said.
Plans have been rewritten, expectations modified, and more soul-searching is underway. And new possibilities are on the horizon!
What I'm learning more and more is that while I'm under greater scrutiny and have to put forth a greater effort as a PNAM, the "mutual selection" involved and the "open mindedness" requirement is still there. Sometimes finding your home is a suprise you didn't expect, not unlike finding your spouse.
I'm going to stop getting mushy and drink some more coffee before I make you all hurl.
The bottom line is, PNAMs may have a longer road to travel, but we're on that road because of the support from the initiated and I wanted to thank all of you for that. A few words do more good than you realize.
