It's been a long time coming

My boss has finally delegated managerial responsibilities, which is a big step in this company. I now manage 4 people, and work with a software manager who manages 6. People were allocated by project, so the number will fluctuate; I'll also be calling on services of designers not reporting to me, as other project leaders will be calling on my staff's skills.

This should be interesting, hopefully mostly in good ways!
