Alba's Director vacancy (II)

Finally! We have got an official announcement! Today the President of the executive commission (just above the directors position) have sent an email to all the Alba's stuff.


Then: official announcement that we don't have director. Yesterday I have wrote about this. Also it's official that the Rector Council of the CELLS consortium have nominated a new director, but some paperwork pending. Finally this selected person have rejected the position due to personal reasons.


Now the position is now open again, and the President have said that he will keep us informed. Only with this it's a big change in the relation with the workers.


This synchrotron project will continue as it's planned. In a few months, we will receive the first scientist to use the facility. I feel this change is the beginning of a new era in Alba. I hope I'm not being to optimistic, many inertias must change. Cooperate in the efforts for this start up, means many things, including don't refuse a proposal of agreement about work condition because it comes from the workers side.


With common sense and good intentions we can reach the balance, having back the smell the illusion in the corridors of this synchrotron.
