For almost 2 years I have been on the Sergeant's promotional list. In October 2005 I and about 90 other deputies took the series of exams that culled the herd down to 40 qualified candidates. Yours truly was #17!!! Not bad, eh!!! 17th out of 90 plus! Well, smug as I was then I recently realized that the current list expires THIS OCTOBER, Oh Crap! and I was still just a DFL (Deputy For Life).
Well, Halleluia!! I just got the notice that the guy ahead of me just got promoted. That, of course, means I AM #1!!!
Okay, I need one more Sgt. to leave, retire, get fired or otherwise no longer perform their function and I am good to go! Of course, I could always end up as an "experienced" test taker this fall. I remain Quietly Confident!
