  • New job!

    Those of you following my To hell with do more with less thread in MiM know I've been looking for a new job, but have been holding it pretty tight to my chest.

    I've actually been looking since last September. It took me awhile to find the right job, but I finally found it, interviewed last month, and got the contingent offer today. I accepted it.

    I still have to go through a background check but that should be no problem since I went through one last summer to get my nursing license. I'm moving to Cincinnati.

    So much to do! Got to find a new place to live, move, try to leave my current place ready to rent out, start a new job, end an old one. Leave old friends, reconnect with friends in Columbus, and make new ones in my new place.

    I hate moving, but it will be well worth it. This job is a step up: tenure track, many more opportunities for professional development. This job is a career changer for me. I'll finally be able to go back to school and get the advanced education I've been wanting. And I'll have opportunities later to move up to a big university and teach at the university level.

    So this is all very exciting and very overwhelming at the same time.
    They say that God only gives us what we can handle. Apparently, God thinks I'm a bad ass.

      Cinci is about a 3-4 hour drive away from where I am *laughs* I would still be going there on a regular basis if I had not found a specialist closer who could handle my liver issues. If you like Semi big cities... it is a great place.

            I don't have an attitude problem. You have a perception problem.

                    Cinci is a good city. If you're not a fan of largish cities though, and depending on where you work, you might look into actually living in Northern Kentucky. It's like the pleasant suburbs, just 5 minutes away from the big city.
