18 Month Rule, My Foot

My contract position was due to expire Monday, August 1st. After 18 months, they usher contractors out the door and bring new ones in to start from scratch. I met with my manager Wednesday night around 6:30 and she informed me that they were able to extend my contract another year. The delay was for an executive vice president to ratify the decision. I know he does not know who I am and I am not even sure if he works in the same country. Anyhow, I have managed to remain employed again. This is quite a big relief. Also a nice reward for hard work done. Three cheers for me.
