When there is a PROMOTION

The enitre office comes to a hault. Who will get that position? Whowill get the other persons position? One of the VP's came by to letus know that he would be moving to a different department. That meansthere will be a new VP. Will there be a promotion from within? Whowill get the promotion? But who has really earned the promotion? Ifpromoted from within, it will most likely be an AE (AccountExecutive). But then which SSE will become the new AE? And then willone of the CSR's will be promoted to an AE...wow!Which CSR will get the promotion?

Basically that is the thoughts and chatter that goes on for a fewhours (and lingers on for days) when someone high up is promoted.Indeed, all work comes to a hault. Interestingly enough, a few weeksbefore I started one of the CSR's was promoted to be a SSE. Yes, I'msure this involved some talk and chit-chat about the situation, butnot nearly as much as a new VP. A CSR being promoted does not involveas big of a domino effect.
