Do you know what bugs me? When you do the right things because it is right and something not so right comes out of it. Let me tell you what is eating me.

Last week Christy called me and asked me to pray for her. She was scheduled to go for a job interview at a school to fill the nurse position. She has been working at the hospital since she graduated from nursing school in June. All this time it has been orientation to the various wards in the hospital. Depending on what ward she has been assigned to depended on what hours she worked and when. On one ward she might work an eight hour shift and another one 12. One might be morning another night. Alex is a teacher. So more often than not they were not getting to see each other awake for days at a time. So Christy had been searching for a different nursing job to get day hours and more time for her honey. This job came up and she went for the interview. She knew the pay would be less but the hours and the fact it was a school would be perfect for her and Alex. Apparently the school was happy with her interview. She went today and was told she had the job. (she explained that she would be available as of October 1 since she felt obligated to give the hospital a two week notice). Right after the interview she drove over to the hospital and went to her boss. She told her the good news.She told her that she was giving her two weeks notice and would like to stay on prn so she could work as needed as a fill in. The lady told her she had to make a phone call. When she came back she was not very nice. She told Christy that it was a waste for them to have had her do the orientation. And that as of then she was gone. She would not be able to stay on as a prn nurse because she had no experience (just orientation). Christy was scheduled to work tonight. But not anymore. Her comment to me was, " if I would have known they were going to do that I would have waited until October 1 and told them I was done but I was trying to nice and fair and this is what I got for it." It's a little hard to not feel she was right. Although what she did was the correct thing to do. I am furious that the hospital would treat her like that. She has alot to offer and they will be the ones to lose out on her talents and willingness to work. What a shame for them. But there is a bright side to this, Alex is going to get some home cooked meals again starting tonight!!!!!!
