Update


So the job thing is still very much in limbo.  The department where I was proposed for a job is in the soak cycle until the new fiscal year. So no money until mid-September for my position. So that means I’ve been taken off of payroll with my company for the time being. This makes a lot of sense, they can’t keep paying me to sit here and not produce work for them.  The potential position(s) within my Company have not been taken off the table. And I have promises from staffers to keep me in the loop. People are still burning calories on my behalf trying to get me back in, so I’m just waiting to see what happens.


I’ve also been trying to explain to people that even if I can’t stay with the Company it is NOT A BAD THING. After all, I tried to quit entirely two weeks ago. If I don’t stay with my Company, that forces me to get out and pursue opportunities in my new industry. Or opportunities that blend my old industry with my new industry.  The financial stability of remaining with my current company would be nice. Conversely, getting out and gaining experience in Health Care would be nice. Both are great options for me. I am more than happy to pursue either.


So today, I spent most of the day doing things to sever ties with my Company as per Human Resources. Like transferring liability for my cell phone. This was soooo frustrating. Not because of my Company and not because of AT&T, but because my iPhone 4 dropped my call twice during the transfer.  The problem with the antenna IS ABSOLUTELY a problem for me. I can wrap my hand around the phone and the bars will go from 5 to 0 bars in seconds.  It’s my fault somewhat cause my iPhone 4 case (which I got free from Apple and which fixes the problem) is lounging in the cup holder of my car.  But going down to the car is not as of yet on my To-Do list, hence it didn’t get done today. Unlike 11 of the things that  were on the To-Do list.
