Well, the asteroid, so long in the coming, is finally bearing down upon us. Whether it passes by and causes little damage, wrecks much but, capriciously, leaves random things standing in its wake or obliterates all - I will soon know.
I'm not talking about the latest celestial body (one of a seemingly longish list) that is heading Earthwards (but will eventually pass by at a 'close' distance of a few million miles). No, I'm referring to the new structures that will replace the PCTs (my employer) in April 2013. Today, the broad structures were announced and, contained within the consultation document, a table gave an overview of the likely number of posts, split by grade, that will make up the establishment of the two organisations that are my most likely landing point.
There is not enough detail at this point to be able to say if I will get to slot straight into a new role (the asteroid passes by), be able to at least compete for a post at the same grade I am currently on (not too much damage) or if I will be offered a post significantly more junior to my current position (wipeout!). Even so, I'm feeling less than confident that I have a face that fits in the New NHS. In fact, I'm more than a little depressed about the way things are shaping up.
I'm feeling like the proverbial rabbit, caught in the headlights and frozen to the spot. How does one 'proactively manage' the asteroid that is about to smash everything?
