Update

So, after all my anxiousness, I didn't get the job. In fact, I'm pretty sure a friend of mine will be getting it as she had a second interview late yesterday. I was never called for an interview. I'm very happy for her, although I'm also a little surprised. She needed the position more than I did, so for that reason I'm happy. God works in mysterious ways. Maybe there's going to be something better in my future.

On a good note, after talking to my boss last Wednesday and yesterday, I'm feeling much better about my current situation. I've always liked this job and wasn't really looking to leave it. My boss is going to phase her retirement and the Provost will probably be hiring someone in the next few months to do her position, or may even reorganize his administration. It seems that even if there is reorganization, it may work out in my favor. There is a chance that the Director position could be turned into an Associate Provost position. This may very likely give my position the boost that it needs to go to an unclassified position of Project Manager, Admininstrative Assistant, or the like. In order to become a higher classified position, or an unclassifed position, my job duties must change. I'm already doing the work of at least two people and am very overwhelmed. If they are able to reclassify me there may be a chance that I can get another person to help, or at least more student hours. My hopes are really high for this! If something doesn't change for the better I'll be burnt out on this job VERY soon.
