Congratulations
Recently my eldest daughter, who has had a number of difficult years since leaving school, was "let go" from a job she really enjoyed. In part this was due to a conflict between two "managers" to whom she reported. One treated her like a dogsbody and personal slave, the other made full use of her talents and often entrusted her with quite important tasks - even down to travelling to Europe on occassion to deliver valuable articles. In the end, no one can survive in that sort of conflict and the loser was my daughter.
The really good news is that she has succeeded in landing herself another position very quickly and will start in the New Year in her new job, with the prospect of a career before her and none of the conflicts of her old job to deal with. At least one of her former managers has given her a glowing reference - and the other doesn't matter any longer.
As you can guess, I am proud of her and the manner in which she has dealt with this crisis.
Well done my girl!

That is wonderful. I hope I can raise my boys as well.
