An update....
I've been unemployed for 7 weeks now. I'm still stressed (I was stressed before this all started, the facility was a shit show) but at least now I'm stressed about picking the next job so it's not a shit show and I'm not being taken advantage of.
I've had several interviews and one offer that I was hard pressed not to laugh at as it was less than what I made right out of school. They did come up to something I'd consider but they are pushing me to make a decision, but when I asked them to put it in writing and not just a verbal offer they took their time and then sent me the benefit info not the offer. They are my third choice but so far the only offer I've gotten.
The first choice is with the same parent company, 100% virtual, and the focus is pretty much the entire reason I got into healthcare. I've had two very long interviews and I really feel like this could be a great position that I could thrive in and make a difference in people's lives. They are being a bit slow on making a decision and if I wait for them I'm worried I'll miss out on something else if you don't choose me...
The third option if I don't get the one I want is to go back to being a contractor in long term care. The money is good, the benefits are good, and as a contractor I wouldn't be directly involved in the facility so they couldn't make me do the kitchen work that the previous two places have done. I'd take care of the clinical, the charting, some audits, and maybe a meeting or two but not the day to day crap when you actually work for the facility...
I really hope that the job I want comes through, that would be the best fit...
