At the end of March, I quit my job at AV Surgical Institute. I didn't have another job lined up, but I was hopeful and at peace that it was the right thing to do. I was not happy working there and would come home cranky and it was really affecting me and Zach. So I asked him if he was ok with me quitting and only having his income.
I found a job posting for a per diem tech position at the hospital and applied, then the following morning I got a call for a job interview!! It was so quick! I interviewed the next week, and used Dr. Boghossian, a podiatrist I worked with, as my reference. After I left the interview, Dr. B texted me saying he felt confident I got the job. And the next day I got a call saying that if my background check went through, they would call with the job offer.
It's amazing how quick it all worked out!! I was afraid to quit AVSI sooner because I didn't have anything else lined up. I like to have a plan and a safety net. But for some reason, I felt strong to have faith in the Lord and know that if I put my trust in Him, everything would fall into place. And it did!!
The following week, I got the job offer, I got all my paperwork turned in, and I started working the week after that! I have truly been blessed! I was even hoping to have a little time to go to Vegas or something, but it didn't happen.
I guess it was a blessing I started working so soon, because financially it has worked out. We had planned a Disneyland trip with Mel and Jill's families at the end of April, and even though we had a little bit of money from our tax refund, my paycheck helped out a lot too.
The job has been great. Even though I was hired on per diem, I am in a 6 month orientation period so I work full time. It's great! Although I am exhausted, I am getting paid almost double what I was. The staff at the hospital is great too. Everyone is so nice, plus I don't have to do everything!! There is someone to clean instruments, order supplies, everyone helps pull cases, and I feel so much relief!
I am learning so much, and meeting a lot of really great people and doctors. I also have been told that since one of the techs is retiring in July, I can apply for her position. She is part time, which means I would get benefits, extra money and a set schedule. That is something I want, a set schedule. The hardest part is everyday being up at a different time. I am so tired, my eye twitches haha.
I am grateful for the guidance of the spirit and knowing that I have a Heavenly Father who is mindful of me. And that when we are faithful and obedient, He will bring forth blessings. I am grateful for a supportive husband, and that he is in-tune with the spirit also. We have been so blessed.
