logans_girl2001I guess you could say this is an update to this post.
So two of my co-workers have been let go recently (making it obvious that the real reason J was interviewing was to replace them). One came out of left field for me (but really shouldn't have). Her replacement started Friday.
Our weekly meeting was pushed back so that she could attend it. During the meeting I made a comment about preferring to get paid bi-weekly because you then know exactly how much you'll get paid each week (this company gets paid on the 5th and 20th). J muttered "That's about to change" and it kinda freaked me out. I asked her about it and she put my mind at ease and then asked me to meet her in one of the small conference rooms.
She told me that she was pushing really hard to get me on permanent starting Monday (today) but that her boss's boss (one of the VP's who knows next to nothing about our part of the business) was pushing back just as hard. She is assuring me that his pushing isn't that he doesn't want me on the team, just that they hired KS last week and he's worried about how it'll look with them then 'hiring' me.
She did say that she keeps reminding him that my contract actually ended a month ago and that it's more expensive to keep me under contract than to 'hire' me.
