Jobs and Dreams!

I GOT THE JOB!!!

I found out that most of the residencies at MultiCare come with the job as long as you pass the residency. What does that mean? That means that I have a job passed the residency!!! I am technically hired for the floor. The residency essentially becomes a great version of on the job training!

To say I am excited is an understatement! It is a good thing that the HR person on the phone could not see me as she told me the details of my new position as a nurse! I am not so sure she would have continued with the conversation! LOL! I was in a fit of random, excited, flailing movements that should only be done in private, if at all!

I count my lucky stars and do not take for granted that I am one of the lucky few. There are still so many of my classmates who have not found job yet, or the jobs they found are less than good. It isn’t all luck that I have a job either. I have done things to try to place myself in the best possible position to get one. I am no more deserving of this job than my cohorts, but I do realize the awesomeness of getting a job less than two weeks after passing the NCLEX.  I could not have dreamed that things would go this well once school was out!

I started this year out with many plans and the big ones are coming into fruition! I do realize that I was overly ambitious with thinking I could accomplish all my plans, which is something I tend to do. I am working on being more realistic with my time, goals, and resources. My list of 34 is going to have to wait. I am going to have many of the things on that list done, but not everything. Not only have some circumstances changed, but I was really unrealistic with what I thought I could accomplish while in school and this summer. It’s ok. I am going to get there. In the end, my intentions are being realized. I am reaching those flying dreams!
