Just a little thing I’m proud of today. CW has a family thing and will be off for one or two weeks. Staffing called today to see what I could cover for the next two weeks. I only offered M - W. I’m proud of myself for not taking all the days.

Just spoke with the HR rep and sent an email accepting the offer. I’m stoked. And my offer is at the top of the salary range for the position. I need to go to the store and get a bottle of bubbly to celebrate with some day drinking. 🤣

I have a lot of thoughts about the Cornell Rapists. As someone who has been sexually assaulted and the mom of someone who was sexually assaulted there are a lot of thoughts and feelings. But one thing I cannot get past is the idea that men simply cannot control themselves around a drunk woman. Or

Last week we increased my Mounjaro dose. Yesterday was my 2nd shot with the increased dose. Y’all. The nausea. 🤢 It’s not debilitating, but I really hate feeling nauseous. That my whinge for the day. 🤣🤣

Morning. I’ve been up since 4AM because I couldn’t get back to sleep. 4.5 hours of sleep is not my idea of a good night. But whatever. 🤣

I think the interview went well. It's a pretty big company so the decision process may take a couple of weeks. But the training start date is 11/16, so they're planning to make a decision with enough time for chosen candidates to give notice. The pay is a little lower than my ideal salary.

Fell asleep around 1. Woke up at 6. Said fuck it and went back to sleep. Didn’t wake up again until 10. Now my brain is foggy and I feel like I’m hungover. I should know better than to go back to sleep like that. It never makes me feel better. 🥴

Right before my interview started the last place I interviewed with called me. Not to offer me the supervisory position I interviewed for. No. They offered me a “Med Cart” position. That is a job that can be filled by a LPN. I have a Masters of Science in nursing. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Thinking about my notice period if I get this job. Policy requires 4 wks to get PTO pay out. So I can give no notice (which would screw them since I’m covering coworker’s vacay), 2 weeks cover her vacay and then not be available the second week, or give 4 wks and not be available for 3 of them.
