Kim, I need to speak with you at your earliest convenience.
dev20
16,047
Please call me at 3-7160.
dev20
16,048
Thanks,
dev20
16,049
it's a power thang.....
dev20
16,050
I will be attending a funeral tomorrow, but I am available to meet on Tuesday.
dev20
16,051
Thank you for checking back with me.
dev20
16,052
Kim, Can we meet around noon?
dev20
16,053
That would be fine - just give me a call and let me know when you can meet.
dev20
16,054
You are down.
dev20
16,055
Hey, looks like I will be returning to Portland.
dev20
16,056
They want me back and it is a much better place to work.
dev20
16,057
HR is wanting me to consider other opportunities in Houston, however.
dev20
16,058
They have one week to come up with something, otherwise I'm outta here.
dev20
16,059
Other companies are paying ridiculous sums to experienced West traders (California experience).
dev20
16,060
Thanks for considering me for your group and I'll keep you updated.
dev20
16,061
Kim, Thanks for spending time with me yesterday.
dev20
16,062
I have spoken with Tom May concerning what my status was.
dev20
16,063
I mentioned that my preference would be to return to Portland, however, I would be considering other options within the company for one week.
dev20
16,064
My thought was that I need to relay this same message to Presto, Doug and Lloyd.
dev20
16,065
I will communicate this today, unless you have other ideas.
dev20
16,066
As discussed, I have attached a copy of my resume.
dev20
16,067
It is getting kind of long, but I havent really gotten a chance to "abbreviate."
dev20
16,068
Thanks again for helping,
dev20
16,069
It looks like we will be moving back to Portland before summer starts.
dev20
16,070
The job didnt turn out as promised and I was put into a role that I didnt want.
dev20
16,071
Oh well.
dev20
16,072
The Portland team still wants me and has offered 4 different roles to choose from.
dev20
16,073
You cant beat that.
dev20
16,074
Anyway, I will let you know how it turns out.
dev20
16,075
I will come by sometime after 8:30 am if that is okay.
dev20
16,076
Thanks!
dev20
16,077
Congrats to you and your wife on your new arrival.
dev20
16,078
Hope she's a good sleeper.
dev20
16,079
Now at least you can field some different questions, "how is the baby?"
dev20
16,080
versus "where is the baby?"
dev20
16,081
But, as Kim used to say, "enough about you, let's talk about me."
dev20
16,082
I spoke with Tim B again and he is agreeable to the idea of my return.
dev20
16,083
He mentioned that West has needs in Services, Middle Mkt - SW and even Structuring.
dev20
16,084
I think that I would be a good fit in Mid Mkt, as I could build upon my experience and also learn as much of the structuring side as possible.
dev20
16,085
Wherever I go, I am ready to make an impact.
dev20
16,086
The HR department here in Houston wants me to entertain other opportunities within Houston and they have brought some things before me today.
dev20
16,087
I had also considered staying and building the Ercot business here, as there is a huge need for leadership in this area.
dev20
16,088
However, Real Time roles are very hard to shed around here and I am apprehensive about being a Commercial Director managing Real Time.
dev20
16,089
I have no doubt that I could make a huge difference here, but a lot of time would have to be wasted defending the group and myself.
dev20
16,090
Anyway, I wish we could sit down, have a beer and discuss, but that's probably not practical.
dev20
16,091
Belden says to talk with you about the needs of the floor and get some idea where the ideal fit might be.
dev20
16,092
I know that you are out of the office, but give me an e-mail when you get a chance.
dev20
16,093
Thanks,
dev20
16,094
Amy, Hope everything is going well with you.
dev20
16,095
I dont know if Tim has talked with you, but I am considering returning to Portland.
dev20
16,096
I am talking with Wolfe and Tim, but I would like to keep things low key.
dev20
16,097
I know this all seems pretty weird, but my situation has changed so drastically that I have some major, immediate decisions to make.
dev20
16,098
Basically, the East Desk wants me to build a team in Real Time, similar to how we did it in Portland.
dev20
16,099
Unfortunately, that was not the job I agreed to take (always get it in writing - I never could).
dev20
16,100
Had I known that it was a similar position to what I had, I never would have left.
dev20
16,101
Anyway, Kim Melodick wants me to consider opportunities within Enron Houston and I have agreed to give her a week to see if a fit exists.
dev20
16,102
She is easy to work with and is being very helpful.
dev20
16,103
However, I have expressed to Kevin and Kim that my first preference would be to return to Portland.
dev20
16,104
I have given this some thought and believe that taking the Real Time position would not be a good move for me, given the atmosphere here.
dev20
16,105
I would like to have a new perspective on this if you have time to converse.
dev20
16,106
I would appreciate any feedback that you can give me.
dev20
16,107
Thanks, I
dev20
16,108
Bart, Jeff passed on your e-mail.
dev20
16,109
Too bad about the beetles.
dev20
16,110
Is that the Taylor High School Mascot?
dev20
16,111
"Taylor, home of the fighting beetles,"....
dev20
16,112
Go beetles!
dev20
16,113
I think you are right about Ercot being difficult to set up, but it just reemphasizes the need for you; they need an organizer and this situation fits your strengths.
dev20
16,114
Well, enough about you, let's talk about me..............
dev20
16,115
the Entergy gig was made more difficult, as I received NO training in cash trading.
dev20
16,116
After a couple of months, a coworker took me in and gave me some pointers on hedging, which is especially important in my region.
dev20
16,117
The month of May was very profitable, finally, and things were coming together until..........
dev20
16,118
(Please keep this confidential) Presto called me in to tell me that I was moving to Ercot as Manager of the Real Time group, his decision being final, no negotiations.
dev20
16,119
(thanks for your understanding, bunghole).
dev20
16,120
I had previously turned down several attempts to bring me back to Texas in this capacity and I expressed that I was less than happy with his decision.
dev20
16,121
I think that Ercot will be busy and a worthwhile region to be involved with, given that we have retail load to service, etc. However, thats not the job that I agreed to move 3000 miles for.
dev20
16,122
I suspect other changes would ensue, once I established this region.
dev20
16,123
So.
dev20
16,124
It looks like I will be returning to Portland.
dev20
16,125
We bought a new house here and are very happy with everything, except my job (which is a huge thing).
dev20
16,126
I may be working West Mid Mkt SW or doing something with the Service Desk.
dev20
16,127
I dont mind doing anything as long as it's productive.
dev20
16,128
Anyway, I was pissed in the beginning, but I had to take time to digest this, analyze the opportunity and make an informed unemotional decision.
dev20
16,129
I am too deep in the (out of the money) options to cut and run, so it now boils down to where do I want to live.
dev20
16,130
There is interest outside of the company in me, but I am under contract.
dev20
16,131
I miss Portland and I think about it all the time.
dev20
16,132
I must be a mountain man at heart.
dev20
16,133
Well, let me know if you have any thoughts on the above.
dev20
16,134
Once again, I dont wish to have this get out to anyone on the West desk, just yet.
dev20
16,135
I heard that you did really well on your home sale.
dev20
16,136
That's awesome.
dev20
16,137
Maybe I can buy back my house and my boat.
dev20
16,138
(just kidding).
dev20
16,139
I am actually more concerned about buying another boat than I am a house.
dev20
16,140
How is your housing in Taylor?
dev20
16,141
I miss the beer in PDX, boating and the winter bowling.
dev20
16,142
It is freaking hot here in Texas!
dev20
16,143
Anyway, keep kicking butt and keep those Texans in line!
dev20
16,144
Kim, My relo expenses have not been turned in as yet.
dev20
16,145
Do I turn those in to you?
dev20
16,146
