The easy part was getting promoted. The hard part is being the boss. The best part is growing in the positon and being a mentor to those you lead. Take care those under you and they will be the ones to help you rise.

Thanks again, guys!

The payrise will help fund my next Rollie acquistion, I guess it would happen in near future. Watch this space though!

Congratulations Brendon
Now you'll have to manage people? Good on you mate.
So far I have been able to avoid getting into management. Worker bees don't usually get the chops...
