It was bound to happen
So my knack for procrastination has finally caught up with me in a terrible way.
Without going in to too many details, I learned that some information I had based a decision upon was inaccurate. When the new information came to my attention, I intended to deal with it immediately, but was unable to do so. I wanted to handle face-to-face with my boss and it just wasn't possible when it first came to light. So I went about my business.
Fast forward two weeks. The situation is brought to my attention again through another source and I still had not acted on it. Now it looks REALLY, REALLY bad that I failed to correct the situation sooner.
Now I'm stuck in a position, where it could look to others like I never intended to act on the new information. Unfortunately, the simple truth is, I forgot about it because it really didn't seem like the top thing on the list of priorities.
It turns out now that it should have been THE top thing on the list of priorities.
Depending on how a series of conversations goes on Monday morning, I could be in the job market in a relatively short period of time.
