Back to Atlanta...
I left to come back down to Smyrna Thursday night. The cats knew, and they were mad too. Nevermind the fluffy fresh litter box, the nice fresh water, the favorite food in continual feeder, geeeeez. I couldn't find the damned catnip I'd bought though. I'll buy some on the way back. I want to call and leave them a message, but would it confuse them? I'm crazy, and I know it.
Had an interview at Cobb Hospital in Austell on Friday. Nice hospital. Wacko interview at HR with Dorothy. While physically perfect with fake boobs and...I wonder if those cheeks were implants too, hmmm.....she was a little dingy. For example, mid sentence, she would just forget what she was saying. Huh? A ploy to get me to try for a night track was to say, "You know our recent quality assurance reports have shown that everyone is getting written up for being late in the morning...being late has been a real issue." What the hell. Does she even know me? Punctual Polly over here. She didn't ask me any questions about myself with regard to my career. She too fixated on why I had applied to TWO hospitals in the Wellstar organization....I almost went off....I started in with that intent, but I dropped back and smiled, answered politely with a little bit of a locked jaw and a Buffy Vanderbilt-esque nasal quality. Oi to the vey, I wanted to smack that woman.
The interview on the floor was much better. Again, few questions about me were asked. Huh. Patient ratio is a bit higher at 5-6 to 1. However, telemetry is monitored by a technician on another floor. Wow. I can't take it even. Weirder than weird. More of the same resource nurses, admission nurses, and an IV team even. Damn. That is the best for me. I was lovin' it. It is only six miles away. The people were very nice. I liked them. It was so much less stressful. There is the 3000.00 sign on bonus and the 1500.00 for moving. Pay wise, I don't know yet. I'm supposed to hear back from them on Tuesday or so.
I have given my notice at work effective 9/16. No money saved. Still a broke bitch up in here. I will survive though. I will indeed. This is starting to depress me (maniacal laugh), so I think I'll stop...for now. Repeats mantra over and over: "Will be allllright...will be alllright....will be alllllllllllright."
