"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
    To realize the value of nine  months:
    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.
"Don't piss off old people The older we get, the less 'Life in Prison' is a deterrent."

If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

With the good comes the bad. My direct report had her year one review today. Mostly 3's - solid performer. No raise. She had about 2 years of experience and wanted the median salary from the BLS data set for an EHS specialist.  At the median, or 50% you would expect that about half those with that salary are at about halfway through their career. She is at the beginning.

So no raise. She came in overpaid and has not exceeded above basic expectations. I predict that she will quit tomorrow.

During the review I told her I would understand if she turned in her notice, but the issues raised would go with her to a new job. I think she has great potential and can grow into the career. I hope she stays, puts in the work, and grows.

Time for a drink and some popcorn.
