Good thing I checked my phone before going to sleep this afternoon. The hiring coordinator called me earlier this morning and left a message, but for some reason the call did not register on my phone until hours later.
Any who, I have orientation tomorrow morning, and I am elated. I am tired of sitting around on my keister.
Congrats!
Hope this facility isn't as trying as the last one was.

Nice! That's great news, Foxxy!
I hope you're happier at this place than the previous one.

I start working tomorrow night.
I'll be working thirty-two hours a week, which is considered full time in the medical field, and I will be working every weekend because I honestly don't have anything going on being the introvert I am. I will be working overnight shift, as I have always done, because I'm most comfortable being away from the hubbub of the daytime drama.
I will be working every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday nights.
I will have three nights off in a row every week: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.
I will have three nights of orientation, though I doubt I will need all three. I will post more later, once I've experienced the facility.

Ready for my second night of orientation.
I like the place. It has its drawbacks, mainly concerning the linen situation, but otherwise I am have gotten good vibes regarding the facility.

You should come out to California and work in a care facility. My MiL is in a facility that I can't praise enough. They have enough people, they are really nice, and even the medical insurance company we use sings their praises. My MiL is dying an inch at a time from Alzheimer's, but she's being treated well. Two years, and not even a bed sore!
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Curious, where in Cali would that be?

How expensive is it to live there?

How expensive is it to live there? To put it plainly, if I had to rent this house (that I bought in '02), I wouldn't be able to afford to live in it. Prices are just getting stupid, is all I can say. My mortgage is $2100 a month, after we renegotiated to a 15 year loan, which is close to pay-off. You could probably get a condo or apartment for less, but I'm not naming prices, as I am not in the business.
