My job's downsiding and this time I was on the chopping block. Good thing I thought I of something to do while I get another job. I've got two weeks untll my last day, I got some savings for a couple of months -amongst whatever I had in investment. I'm thinking of going back to school to be a nurse - hardwork, but I think I'm really good at taking care of people. Seph will work full-time while I enjoy school, get some clinic experience and work part-time elsewhere.
Hint, I think I'm bored. Bored, Bored. The job was good while it lasted, but it the shit got annoying after a while. The shocking thing is , I was actually looking forward to the chopping block, this a chance to figure out what the hell I'm doing.
In other news, a cute, engineer is admiring me at work. He knows I'm married, he's being careful, and I'm enjoying the attention. I know the gossip and all the attention stuff that goes on. Glad I'm leaving, but I can use a little joy to get me through the next weeks. It nice to know that someone cares or is interested. This guy will likely become my new friend and hopefully he's not looking for booty or dating cuz it's out of the question. i think I'm attracted to the fact that he at least has a job and wants to do something. I seen him for 3 years and he always smiles to say hi. Last week I told that May 12 was my last day, and he was like - we have to do something together. I looked and smiled, and said I would email him, because another person was coming up behind me. They seemed to know that we wanted to talk, but I said goodbye politely anyway. He seems to care a lot about my future, when I told him that I was doing nursing amongst other things, he was asking about funding, the length, completing the forms and what not... Totally interesting and weird, I politely said that I was still looking into it and that likely I would take a grant. Student loans are not acceptable to me. GCC has a great program and works with U of Mary Washington to give out grants to final year students. The Mary Washington Hospital has a great program for students and with a good GPA and recommendations, I can land a job in nursing and apply to have my last year of school covering by the hospital. So the engineer sounds cool. I have yet to get coffee and lunch with him a few more times before I find out if he after a girl or he truly wants a friend. My job seems to encourage interoffice relationships, but I still think its strange. What do you do if your mad at each other? Oh, well I can't get into that... I'm married anyway, but its still nice to meet new people for friendships.
But yeah- its time for a change, don't get me wrong my resume is also out there, I've applied to jobs and jobs within the government again. But I'm keeping my options open. Tonight, I get to apply for Wawa. Its a low income job, but if I work overnights, I can go to class during the day and have the other time to go on interviews- sleep of course. The biggest problem is gonna to be keeping myself occupied until I start school or get a job. I don't have cable or satellite anymore.
