Job update

I finally made a decision and I will be staying at my current job at the hospital.  When I called the other place to let them know what I decided, he was happy for me that my current employer really stepped up to keep me, etc.  I felt bad having to turn them down (I have never had to do that), but I think it was the best decision for me right now.

The cool thing is that about 5 minutes after I got off the phone with the director from the out patient place - he actually called me back to offer a PRN (as needed) position.  So, in a way I kind of get the best of both worlds.  It's definitely nice to know that I didn't burn any bridges with them.

Re: Job update

  • Sorry I fell asleep during our text convo last night... 

    I'm really happy for you that you're getting everything you asked for.  You deserve it more than anyone I know. 

    Married in 2008 - DD born in 2010 - EDD 6.15.2012!
  • That's awesome.  I'm glad you made the right decision for you and you're at peace with it!

    Sorry I fell asleep during our text convo last night... 

    I'm really happy for you that you're getting everything you asked for.  You deserve it more than anyone I know. 

    LOL, it's all good.  I was not far behind you.  Last week and this weekend were exhausting for me with all of this...I think last night was my first restful sleep in a few days.  :)

    So, I start that PRN deal tomorrow.  PRN = even more money than a regular employee.  So for those hours I work there, I will be making about 45% more than the rate I was getting at the hospital (before the raise they are giving me starting today).  It will be a nice to have extra cash during all this stuff going on with our house, etc.

    I will probably work 7-11 or 8-11a there a couple of days a week this week and next.  And then in a couple of weeks the main MRI guy is going on vacation so I will probably work more days while he is gone.  They made it very clear that they don't want to overwork me or that I don't get burnt out.  So that's cool that they are keeping that in mind.  And I can always say no if I don't want to work or can't work  

    The director thanked me a ton of times.  So I'm happy that even though I felt bad for turning down their offer - I am still helping them out quite a bit.

  • That's awesome so glad it sounds like it worked out all around (getting the PRN thing even though you turned them down, etc!)

    Big yay! for raises :)

  • That sounds awesome! Glad you got it worked out. 
  • Yes

    That deserves a celebration.  I'm so glad it all worked out!

  • That is fantastic that it has worked out for you with an as needed position AND that your current employer really stepped up.

    I am also glad that the person at the out patient place was so understanding - that would tell me that he would be a fantastic person to work for...  someone who can be happy for you and what is going to be best for you instead of being focused on filling a position.

    I hope things keep going so well for you!!

  • I'm late to the game, but I just wanted to say congrats! I'm glad everything worked out for you. Doesn't it feel nice to be wanted!?
