MY NEW JOB! On the off-chance anyone gives a fuck.
14 years ago
As I think I've mentioned before, my current job at Hospital "A" has been giving me the shaft. More work, less pay, crappy hours, basically adding up to breaking my back working for what amounts to not enough pay to pay all the bills. No hope of moving out of the dull, stagnant town I grew up in. I've been searching for a new job for a couple of years now.
Well, I guess I finally made a breakthrough. The staffing agency I've been pestering all this time has finally come through for me, and now I got a full-time job at Hospital "B," doing exactly what I do now - just with less workload and more pay. I'm beyond thrilled. This will take SO much pressure off!
Of course, it's not EXACTLY the same. But some things are. My superior at work will go, "okay, here's a task I think you can do, it's not TOO complicated and I'll be here if you need help. It's called [insert name of task I've been doing all my adult life]. Think you can handle it?? 8D"
In fact, this job is pretty much a piece of cake so far. The office is quiet, never hectic, and the doctors at Hospital B are MUCH better behaved than what I'm used to at Hospital A. It's so peaceful that it's driving me nuts. I get antsy when I go eight hours and nothing catches fire or something. I didn't realize how used to chaos I had grown.
The hardest part is getting up at 4 AM to make it to work in time (6 AM). And even then, sometimes I don't miss the traffic somehow. Why is everybody up so damn early?? It's about an hour of commuting.
It's actually a pretty cool schedule, though, because I'm all done with work by 2:30 PM and I have the whole day left. Downside is my system will totally crash by 8 PM. My night life is suffering! Except for how I don't have one.
I think I'll be moving to the East Bay area soon to be closer to my job and farther from my parents' house. I THINK I can afford it, but I don't actually know how much I make yet. It's not really what I wanted. I'd hoped to move to the South Bay so I could be closer to the people I care about, but... oh well. If it's not meant to be, then it's not.
I still work at Hospital A too, officially, but since they aren't calling me in or giving me any hours, it's not really like having two jobs.
It's like my life is beginning anew! Except I'm all by myself and have no friends to share it with.
What's going to happen? Time will tell.
And I don't even know what this will do to my plans to move to Portland...

Haha, but yeah, 6am jobs are tough. Wish I was closer so I could help you out with the 'no friends' part. But alas, I'm in Sacramento.
Here's to a happier life.
But yeah, life is going to get awesome! :3
