Although this week could have been or maybe even should have been bad and stressful, my good mood that began Sunday seems to continue.
Monday I woke up late and rushed into work and I was told that if I was going to be late that I shouldn't bother coming in. That really didn't make much sense to me since it's not like we're right in the middle of a project, I can answer the phone just the same but whatever. I decided since I had the whole afternoon to myself that I would give the gyno a call since I had been hurting a little bit. They were able to get me in that afternoon. Nothing was apparently wrong but he set me up with a pain management specialist at UCSF. He didn't think that I have polycystic ovarian syndrome. So who knows but if one of these things, whether the meds for the low sugar or the pain management doc, can help, I really don't care. I also sent off some Christmas presents, a little late, I know, but at least I did it. :)
Tuesday I went into work and my phone was gone as was my manager. A little odd since my entire job is to be on the phone. I tried to find another manager to see if they had any clue what was going on and they didn't and they tried to help me find a phone, which we were unsuccessful with. Everything else was still at my desk so I don't know if I'm fired or what but really, I don't give a shit. This is ridiculous. I went home and decided to look for other jobs. I gave some ambulance companies a call. When I spoke with AMR, which is my preferred company to work for, they told me they didn't require a Central California EMS certificate and that I should come in and get an application and I could take their hiring test Wed morning. I was a little annoyed that American told me that in order to work as an EMT in the valley that I would need the CCEMS certificate but the fact that I could go in and test so soon made me not worry too much. Another company in a town a bit away told me they're always hiring and I should definitely go get an application. So yay!
Wednesday I took my test with AMR, passed and they asked me to come in Friday for an interview! I'm not getting my hopes up too high because I've been told they prefer people with experience but I think it's good just to have my name known to them that I'm interested. I also got a call from Crystal, Bryan's wife, that someone just quit in the Vision Center at Wal-Mart and just wanted to make sure I was still interested. So fuck CIGNA and all their crap, whether I've quit or am fired I don't know but I don't need their shit anymore.
Money is going to be tight for me even more than usual but honestly, I don't care right now. I probably should, but I'm so much happier and physically feel so much better right now. Chris doesn't much care either, he's happy that I'm happy. I think that helps me a lot too because I really felt like I was letting him down being sick and missing work and not bringing in much money. He's so supportive it's unbelievable. I'm so lucky!
