I was surpised yesterday when I went to the office expecting to be issued keys, etc. for my role in a new job only to be told that they'd found someone else they like better for the job (I'd just begun only two weeks earlier). With no explanation about what was deficient about my performance, I had little to learn from with respect to my actions. I did learn that "at will" employment can be very brief indeed.

Surprises are often good opportunities for learning, which seems to be the main purpose of the woman's journal. Lots of times there isn't something more that could have been done to keep an event from being a surprise. Sometimes I'm just wrong or uninformed.
