Bailing on Berlin, etc.
Oct. 5th, 2007 05:06 pmI'm sure every person on my f-list is sick and tired of listening to me bitch about my employment woes. But that's still not going to stop me.
I just accepted a new job earlier this week. I really liked the facility, the staff and the director of nurses seemed great. I got a real positive vibe. This job looks like it would provide me with the challenges I have been lacking before now. The only drawback is that this job is evenings, while I ideally wanted days. That and the salary barely meets my minimum requirement, even when you factor in the shift differential.
Today I got a full-time offer for day shift at another facility for more money. The shift I want, the pay I want, but the facility is not as nice, and the people are not as nice. And I have yet to meet the director face to face, because it seems that dealing with prospective employees is beneath her. She's had me dealing with her assistants. Not a good sign. And it will be dealing with dementia patients, something I'm already tired of doing.
I've burned a prospective employer before by accepting a job and then days later changing my mind, and I felt horrible about it. But I can't help but think that I would be happier with a day shift job, and in the end, money is the bottom line.
