the corporate ladder is greased

Today I went to lunch with a director in the Training department. It was sort of an investigative interview, if such a term exists. A co-worker told him that I was thinking about where to advance to eventually, and that I was interested in his department. This was a real answer to prayer, since I have been feeling directionless lately. But I don't think I did very well. As I was made well aware during my job search, I do not have the right degree, nor enough experience, to qualify for anything but admin work. I came back to my cubicle feeling so thankful for my job and my co-workers. I would have hugged them all if they hadn't been away at lunch. :) I like my present job and feel that I am doing well. Unfortunately, when it's time to move up, no one cares what an accomplished mail girl you are. You're still just a mail girl. How am I ever supposed to get anywhere if no one will let me get anywhere?
