Subject:Justification for New TW Position From:"Miller, Alan" <Alan -dot- Miller -at- prometric -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Thu, 29 Aug 2002 10:24:37 -0400
TWs One and All:
<good news>I was just informed by my supervisor that she's including a spot for a new TW in next year's budget.</good news> <bad news> She wants me to write a justification ... by tomorrow.</bad news>
This is a first for me. I've never had to formally justify a hiring decision. I hired when I needed someone, and laid off when the work dried up. Any suggestions?
