Even though it is a holiday the general manager of the ambulance was in and working today and asked if I could stop down and chat for a few minutes. I generally get nervous when I am asked to come in and have a special meeting with any of my bosses. This was nervousness tinged with a bit of anticipation. Did I do something wrong or was I going to be getting a new job?
“Welcome Aboard” was what I was told after we got to the most private place in the building (the kitchen). He was offering me a full time, 40 hour a week position. The schedule was not finalized but it would be a mixture of 8 hour days and 8 hour evenings Monday through Friday.
I will get the final wording of the position description later this week but from what we talked about I accepted with out hesitation.
I went home relievedand had a difficult time sleeping to get ready for my night shift tonight at the hospital. I finally gave up trying and got up and called my manager at the hospital to break the news to her. She was surprisingly supportive and said that I could bring in my written resignation later and that she would meet with me later in the week. Only after this was done was I actually able to sleep for a couple hours.
