Transition Time: Zero

I had been in a technical/project management assignment about two years, when one day my boss asked me to come to his office to 'discuss an opportunity.' When I arrived in his office, he indicated that the project manager of one of our biggest ($10M+) and most important projects had requested to be removed from the job immediately, and the organization was going to grant the request. He felt I was the most experienced person he had and thought I would be a perfect fit for this job.
