Job stuff
So I've posted in the past about not being completely happy at my office. I've been hanging on far too long because the prospect of eventually working at the hospital clinic and having the benefits(insurance/holiday/vacation/sick leave)was very exciting to me. I really wanted to do it. But I can't keep holding on to a job I pretty much hate at this point, with a boss I can't respect when it looks like moving to the hospital just isn't ever going to happen.
The practice is so slow at this point, I've been cut way down in hours and have taken to working at the theme park more and more, for about a third of the wage. I could fill an entire post about our financial situation, but I can't afford to be underemployed anymore. I applied at a couple of places I've temped at lately. And now I pretty much have a concrete job offer in hand. I was going to jump at a job a couple of months ago at a pretty severe paycut per hour, because it would have been 40 hours and therefore, more money. (But no insurance, no perks)
But it looks like I don't have to take an hourly cut and I will be at nearly 40 hours per week. And get insurance, which means if it's a good plan we can drop me from Ron's plan and save that money. Getting this position should mean about a thousand dollars more a month. I can't turn it down, no matter how badly I feel about quitting my current job. It'll be a shock to my current boss, but I have to do what's good for my family right now.
Did I ever mention the other employee here is also giving notice next week? I really do feel sorry for my boss. I hope to be able to give at least two weeks notice. There is too much here that is in my head, I've been making myself notes and trying to think of how to make this easier on him. I'm too freaking nice.
