Let’s Roll
*Whew* OK, big breath.

Monday I received a call from the nurse manager of the Chest Pain Unit in the City Up The Road. We talked a bit and she wanted to know how soon I could start :-) I told her I *thought* I could start Oct. 29, which was the following Monday, but if not, I could definitely come on board the Monday after. I immediately e-mailed my recruiter, and she called me right back, saying she’d already heard from the hospital, and she could get me there by the 29th. Since then, it’s been non-stop e-mails, one FedEx delivery, multiple faxes, phone calls, and more e-mails! Today I stopped just short of saying, “Hon, why don’t you just get YM and save us all this trouble?” But it looks like I will indeed be starting there on Monday. Packing is not a huge deal, as I barely unpacked last time, and the fact that it’s just about an hour from here means I can actually make multiple trips to retrieve anything I might need. I’ll have to do the extended stay thing for the first few days until my apartment is ready, but I should be able to be in the apartment by Wednesday night.

Yesterday I had to drive to Knoxville for my drug screen. Now, normally that wouldn’t be a big deal, but this agency only uses one chain of labs, so I had to go there, and they wanted results before Friday, so I had to go then. All of which was fine, except that when I got there the place was packed. Seems a local company had sent their entire stable of new employees over for the same purpose, and they had all got there and signed in just before I did. I had prepared for the drug screen like a good little girl, which meant that I already needed to pee when I got there. By the time they got to me, I could have given them 4 or 5 samples and still had a good bit left over! But that got another thing on the list checked, and I’m that much more ready to go. I am definitely ready to get started again; a small amount of vacation is nice, but a paycheck is even nicer!
