“You are a bouncer” My uncle announced after Thanksgiving dinner to my sister and I. Not the brand image I expected, but it made sense. “You keep moving. Something knocks you down, you bounce up.” I am flattered.
Over the last years, I have followed the advice of people much smarter than me, and there is one constant. You cannot succeed unless you fail. So that means trying new things, stumbling, dusting off, stepping back and moving in a new direction.
I work for a mega-corporation. The talk of RA’s, resource action, also known as “You lost your job, not because of the work you do but because you are part of this department.” This afternoon they started. I got the call. We are shifting your responsibilities to another member of the team. So tonight I will brush up my LinkedIn profile and start looking around before the shade comes all the way down.
Bounce, bounce, bounce……
