Level up!

I've been promoted from chief subeditor to deputy editor. The person above me (who happens to be a good mate) didn't quit or get fired, he simply decided he wanted a more hands-off role. Besides a spiffier job title and extra spending money, becoming dep ed means I'll be trained to one day (we're talking distant future) become an editor. Given that I started in magazines seven years ago as a casual sub, I suddenly feel like I've accomplished something - and I'm enjoying it just as much as I did then!
