I think I knocked it out of the park. Like I said before though, I usually do well in interviews. The gal was really nice and told me I did very well. There was one little snag however. Not really a snag per se, but she did in the interview ask me if I was related to ex or his wife. (we all obviously share the same last name, and ex's wife is a nursing instructor in that area). Well I did tell the truth and said no. Because technically I am not. She took me on a tour of all of the areas I would be covering and introduced me to quite a few people. That was really nice. I got to tour Pediatrics, the Nursery, the Birthing Center and the Unit. If you know me, that's RIGHT UP my alley. I was ecstatic when I got home. I don't know if I for sure got the job, but I know I aced my interview. So then I get home for a bit and ponder to myself. Was I being dishonest by not divulging that he was my ex-husband? It made me feel really guilty. Should I or shouldn't I? Well Jax and my neighbors said it was no big deal and to not worry about it. That just ate at me. What should I do? So I e-mailed my boss and asked her what she thought I should do, coming from a management perspective and one who interviews and hires employees. She e-mailed me back and told me that I should tell her before somebody else does. So that's exactly what I did. I called her back and explained to her that he is my ex-husband and although we are not technically related, there is some history there and that we do share a child together. She apologized over and over to me for even asking and making a big deal out of it. It didn't bother me at all and I told her I just wanted to be forthright with her about it and that it had bothered me that I didn't say anything either. She thanked me for calling and told me that that fact would not affect whether I got the job or not. Thank goodness!! I tell ya, I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders when I came out with that. She told me I did wonderful and that she still has to interview to see what else is out there and that by Halloween she's get a hold of me one way or the other. So now I have a week and a half to sit here and stew but it's okay, really it is. I am extremely happy with how everything turned out. Not happy about the pay, but I knew what I was getting into there. She even whipped out their schedule and showed me how she schedules. I wonder if she did that for everybody, who knows. In the end, I feel great about it and feel like I did do the right thing by calling her back. Now it's just going to be a long ass week and a half!!!! Happy Friday!!!!!!! past and future A few hours my ass! - 2007-05-07

I am a 34-year-old college student, mom, friend and all around sarcastic and fun loving person. I'm going to school to be a nurse. I recently quit a high paying job from home to get back into the hospital setting and to get my feet wet in nursing. I work on the Maternal Child Unit which includes the birthing center, perinatal care and Pediatrics. I LOVE IT! These last few years have been all about changes in my life. Although they have required great sacrifice, I know it will be worth it when I'm through. I have a great life and great family and friends and occasionally bitch about my white trash neighbors. Mostly here you will find rants and raves about various people, places, and circumstances. ENJOY! Loves: Nursing, chocolate, my daughter, family and friends, diet coke, Grey's Anatomy (DUH!), being out of my front patio in the summertime with my neighbors, babies, US Weekly magazine, reality TV, being smart and being a mother. Hates: Chemistry, online cyberstalkers who have no life but to be online 24/7 causing drama, my white trash neighbors, pepporoni pizza, mice, bugs, when it's too hot outside and I get sweaty, seafood, backstabbing people, liars, crooks, and when people play the "victim" and whine 24/7.
