I decided in the past month or so that I'd like to work in a more administrative role in the mental health field. I'm finding that I just don't have it in me to go see people everyday and deal with their issues on such a direct level. I'd like to make a difference by working for change on a grander scale. I feel that assuming an administrative position is the best way to accomplish this. With that in mind I interviewed for such a position today.
I interviewed for a supervisor position at the group home that I used to work at. I was offered the job on the spot. The person who would be my supervisor let me know that she's leaving her position and would recommend me for that position if I was interested in it. I thanked her and told her that I wasn't sure about either supervisory position. Either position would allow me to shape the group home into what I think it should be. One moreso than the other, but both would allow for it.
The catch is that either position would mean that I would be Zoey's supervisor. If I took the position I was offered today, I would never actually see her at work except for meetings due to our having different schedules. However I'm still torn. Things are going great between us, but I know that me taking either position will eventually affect that. Taking a position like this is something that I really want and can eventually lead to greater things if I excel at it. However, I know it will lead to conflict between the two of us at some point.
I told them I would let them know on Monday of my decision. So I'll spend the weekend debating between professional and personal happiness.
