Thanks y'all for all of the kind words and wishes
. I may know a bit more before the day is over- our current SARC is speaking with her bosses on my behalf this morning!!!

Mooch- you are absolutely right that sexual harrassment goes both ways and I would absolutely incorporate that fact into the program. One of my other goals is to raise awareness of the number of males who are raped. Y'all would not believe what is going on with our soldiers in Iraq

Sending good vibes that you get the job, Amy. As caring and compassionate as you are and, with your strong beliefs in justice and equality, you'll be perfect for it.

Thanks Eileen, that means a lot to me
Admittedly, mine is an uphill battle with the military, but it's one I'm eager to take on!!

Great news, good to know someone with such integrity is out there doin' their thing like you are.

Are male rapes on the rise in Iraq? I guess they will never tell us about that.

It would be soooooooooooo beneficial to the military to have you in this new position.

Its not going to keep you away from TCS, is it?

You betcha. Big-time. Majorly. Wish I could say more without fear of retribution, so I'll leave it at that....

NOTHING could keep me away from TCS (except maybe a power outage
), though it'll limit the amount of time I get to spend on here during most afternoons.

Amy, you and I see eye to eye on so many things, and I have great respect for you. I send you nothing but the best vibes, and I hope that it works out for the best, but I know no matter where you are, you will make a difference.

Thank you so much!
That really made my day and affirms why I stick with this profession!

Got some semi-bad news today. The woman who was leaving the SARC job is going to stay. It's a bummer b/c now I cannot apply, but it's also good news because she is WONDERFUL at what she does and has such a passion for helping rape survivors. I'm really glad she's staying


So I'll be sticking with my job as an Installation Victim Advocate for now. Can't really complain; it's a great gig


Thanks for all of your well wishes, though. That means a lot to me
Que sera sera!

Aw, sorry about the semi-bad news, Amy. This must just mean something bigger and better is headed your way!
At least you really love the job you have currently. I know you're gonna be into management/leadership positions in no time!! There's always room at the top for those who can and want to make a difference!!

I'm sure this just means that there's something even better planned for your life, it's just not time for it yet.
Not being able to apply for this job may be keeping you open to an amazing opportunity you may not have otherwise been able to go after had you gotten the job!

Thanks guys
Y'all are the best.

Well, this could be a blessing in disguise. At least if I keep this job I'm really showing that I can stick to one position for a long time AND the schedule is good enough to accomodate my online grad school times
