a real job?
I have an interview in the morning for a regular, full-time job at a non-profit nurses organization. Not sure exactly what the association is or does, but the job itself would be graphic design type things, and apparently knowledge of nursing and/or health care in general is not necessary.
I am quite ambivalent about this interview. Well, not the interview so much as the actual job. I can do the work; it’s the idea of going back full-time again that has me feeling a bit wary. It’s arousing all sorts of bad mother vs good mother, daycare vs home care, selfishness vs guilt, money vs no money, adult interaction vs kid stuff all day type dilemmas, really to the point of ridiculousness. It’s just a frigging job interview!
And who knows if I’ll even get the lousy thing. I’ll just do the interview and then go from there. Who knows what will happen.
The idea of using half my earnings from this job to send Ry to daycare isn’t exactly thrilling, but worrying about that now is fruitless. Hopefully I won’t act like a total moron at the interview. I’m really quite the bumbling fool these days when it comes to adult conversations.
- lost and found
- strut your stuff
Good luck, kid. Try not to mention any of your crazy theories about crazy things during the interview. Remember, no one wants to hire a lunatic.
Good luck as well. What will be will be >
it’s a tough call, christa, and decisions aren’t always as easy as making a list of pros and cons and selecting the column with the most items. i guess it depends upon how much you like the job…which you won’t know until you start. *sigh* anyway, how is ryland enjoying the part-time daycare? that might help you decide.
p.s. another ryland picture post would be much appreciated!!!
It may or may not comfort you to know this. Gabby’s daycare starts the infant babies at the most expensive price 140 per week, and then as she moves up to the next oldest room, its 120 and it drops down as she gets older. The fact that you are starting Ryland in daycare a bit older you may get a bit of a break on the rates. The center she goes to is NAEYC accredited and they are very rigid about their guidelines, (i.e. you must have x amount of care givers per child, centers are not allowed to stock peanut butter due to allergies, if your kid has a fever of 100 he/she MUST go home as to not infect other kids) You may want to check it out- http://www.naeyc.org/
I hate to think about the price of daycare when I have 2 going :(
Good luck with whatever you decide though. Hope this info was of some help to you.
good luck! you’ll be great. you’re the smartest girl I know!
