TRANSITIONS

We're in the midst of numerous changes... we have a new president...and since I work for a government office, it is expected that we would also have a new boss. This has led to some organizational changes and quite unexpectedly... our unit was dissolved. It seems our new boss had no love lost for the media and doesn't fancy himself being interviewed incessantly unlike the previous boss so he deemed it unnecessary. At first we were apprehensive, wondering if together with the dissolution of our unit (comprised of 3 personnel and a unit head), we would also be retrenched. But thankfully, we were not and instead just transferred to other units. What's bad though is that we all weren't together anymore. I'd surely miss the people I have been with these past four years. I would also miss the job of handling media events, a job which I was trained to do in college and which I have been doing for the most of my working life...I also miss reading my newspapers every single day; and always being on the lookout for important news 24 hours of my existence (be it on TV or radio). For a time, I thought I have reached my saturation point of breathing and living on nothing but news...but now that it's gone... I realize I missed it. But I knew I have to accept this... who knows, there just may be something better in store for me.
