Boo - I have to retract my teeny squee from last week (early this week?). H was promoted and then told he wasn't. The company decided to lay someone off, causing some sort of domino effect in position changes and H got word that he'd be staying in his current position. He was upset, but we're thankful he still has a job, and they actually gave him more customers, which means he'll still see an increase in his paychecks.
Yay - I got out of jury duty until April 2011 because of breastfeeding. I seriously would never have thought to call and ask if I didn't jokingly post about it here. Thanks ladies! For future reference, can I use pregnancy as an excuse the next time around?
Re: A boo and a yay
I think the first is a boo/yay all itself. Yes, he doesn't get promoted (which didn't come with a pay increase) but now he DOES get a pay increase.
1. At least he's getting more money, although I'm sure he'll need to put in more work for it.
2. Yaaaaay Although I didn't mind jury duty.
