I am so excited right now I can hardly contain myself! The hosptial called and offered me the receptionist job.

I was honestly beginning to think that I was unemployable...but no more. I think this will be a totally awesome job, working as a receptionist for all the specialists who fly in. And I'll be working around enough medical terminology to keep what I learned in A & P fresh.

The only downside I see is that it's part time. 25-30 hrs/week. But hey, you gotta start somewhere. That really doesn't faze me too bad, as I know people move and leave and full time positions open up.

I feel like I'm finally on the road to getting my life back. Smile

Gonna go put Hawaiian Sup'pa Man on & have a tequila!

I think I start Monday. The HR Supervisor called and told me, but needs to talk to the department head for a firm start date. First I have to go in and fill out a bunch of paperwork, get a TB test, and a couple of shots (ouch). They'll call me in the next couple of days.

H, of course, was not thrilled. Because they did not offer me the big bucks full time position. But it was filled by someone already employed there, so I'm not letting him bring me down.

Since it is part-time for now, I'm going to start looking at some online Med. Terminology courses. My first paycheck should cover that expense, and then, who knows where this could lead.

Thank you all for your support.

I'm sure H is just trying to bring me down because my own paycheck=my avenue to independence, and he will no longer be all puffed up thinking he can call all the shots in my life.

But he will not bring me down-I'm more excited about this than I've been in a very long time.

Honestly, I've been to so many interviews, filled out so many applications, talked to the Work Force center every single week, searched websites, papers, ... it's never been this hard before. You'll get something. I just know it.

Your turn, gf.
