I'm back - finally!


Hello A Plus members, friends and curious onlookers - it's been awhile but I've finally returned to my duties as A Plus Triad Blogger. I've been undertaking a number of projects and assignments over the past 6 months and neglected my duties, but I'm back on track now (hopefully). I pledge to keep you updated and informed, and I will be as accessible as possible as we move forward. The blogs will be shorter than past entries but should be informative enough.

For now, we have our final official A+ Triad meeting for the year coming up Sunday, Nov. 21, 3 pm at Greensboro P&DC. Our special guest is Esther Tinort from Facilities Service Office (FSO) in Greensboro and a former Greensboro District employee. She will tell us what is going on with facilities - Post Office closures, consolidations, Station/Branch Optimizations, etc. She can also speak to what kind of opportunities are in FSO, though right now there are no opportunities anywhere. This job freeze is rock solid with no end in clear sight.

We have a party coming up on December 4 and we're putting some final touches on it so that will be the next blog entry. On this one we share the flyer and we send an invite to you and a friend/colleague to come learn something you won't have another chance to learn elsewhere. Plus, get with some positive people, network with folks from the district, plant, Post Office and HRSSC, and find what you need to get where you want to go. We'll help you get there, promise! - Peace, Prez CW

Our next A+ Triad meeting is Sunday, May 24, 2010 - 3 pm. Join us as we learn "Strategies for Getting What you Want - before the window of opportunity closes." It's a Greg Gray presentation, brought to you exclusively for the Triad. Also, learn the up-to-date info on the upcoming White Party, perhaps the most exciting event so far this year. We could use the help! Finally, bring your eCareer application, and be on the lookout for some new workshops being worked on. You may be in need of the help, or just want to learn something new. See you soon - cw
