    Got some intersting news in work today - My job has been changed and I have been asked to take on a load of extra responsibility - initially my boss said It would not attract any more money - but today she said that my job description would be rewritten and the job woud subsequently be reassessed and possibly re-banded. I know it is only a might - but I can't help getting excited - would mean an almost £9000 pay rise!!!!
