Part-Time Promotion

The temporary manager at work today confirmed that he was going to another site from tomorrow, something which I had already guessed from what the area manager had told me on Friday. A couple of hours later he went to a meeting at head office and never returned.
I got a phone call about 40 minutes before the end of my shift from the area manager to confirm that I would be the acting temporary manager for 2 weeks. It is however, at the same hourly rate as I am getting now, and an hour less each day. So, effectively I am going to be worse off each shift that I do. I don't mind though as this will look good on my c.v., I get to go home early and it gets me out of my next set of night shifts.
I was going to cancel the temporary manager's pass and take great pleasure in it, but I will leave that honour to tomorrow's day supervisor who hated this guy the most. I'm sure he will enjoy that!
We all, at work, now have to work together for the next 2 weeks to get the place running exactly as we want it to run, so that the new manager, who starts on 2nd November, won't have anything to change! (Though, knowing how some managers work, he could just change some things for the sake of it). Lets hope that I am up to the task!
