Share your good news! — Page 16

As I was reading through a few older pages of this thread, I came across some posts of mine that were beyond moronic, childish, and obnoxious.  What the f*ck was I on 7 months ago!?  And I want answers!!!  I don't even remember posting those things, and I wouldn't dream of posting stuff like that now.  Don't know what my problem was, maybe my grandpa's death was affecting me in ways I can't remember.


The good news, is that I wouldn't dream of acting like that now.

Good luck, but bear in mind that if it doesn't work out, this sort of thing can simply give you the motivation to find another job.  I don't mean to be a downer, but I know that work has been a challenge for you to find.  Now you've got your resume up to speed, and since often the one job we apply for doesn't work out, you can submit your resume elsewhere and hopefully find work.

That said, I hope this one particular job works out, since you obviously feel it would be a good fit.  Good luck!

Thanks guys. I'm just happy that my bro is always looking out for me. He hates to see me down. Some times I don't know how he puts up with me.

I got a new fly swatter a few weeks ago, and I've finally broken it in. It kills 'em Musca domestica real good.

The Joint Commission came to our hospital yesterday and the day before.  For those who don't know, this is an accreditation organization that can shut hospitals down for not conforming to high safety standards

http://www.jointcommission.org/

They inspected other parts of the hospital, but our floor was especially targeted due to its new integration into the hospital, and this was our first survey by the Joint Commission.  Normally our director would handle this, but she had to leave the day before the semi-surprise inspection for a family emergency, leaving...me!...in charge of representing our floor.

The inspection went extremely well.  I had to go to several meetings with the highest folks in the hospital and the Joint Commission surveyors.  Yesterday, during the final "wrap up" meeting where all findings were noted, the surveyor of my floor, after noting a few minor things that could use improvement, stated, "darth_ender* really represented the behavioral health floor.  He was creative and took initiative and researched suggestions I had made the first and brought ideas to me today [as in yesterday].  Look out for him; he is a rising star."

I couldn't help but blush hearing all these things in front of so many important people, and I received many congratulations afterward.  It was very rewarding and made me feel great.  But more important than my personal ego, it's great to know that our floor is providing so well for our patients.  It was a surprisingly great experience.

That's great! Now, if only the inspection crews that inspected the family business a while back had had the same things to say about that (how many warning labels does this world need before those people are happy?).

 I was previously unaware that hospitals may have allowed such a level of ah, hand-rolled pacifiers(?), that it might have required such a commission...it is good that Possessed was not in attendance...!

I apologize for not congratulating you further as I believe you did truly already receive your quota...also fall is coming and you will not wish to have difficulty pulling on your sweaters...nor might you desire to have to repurchase an entire collection of artificially enlarged hats... ;-)

No worries.  I don't need ego inflation.  I just had to share.  Good to hear from you again :)

 Way to go, buddy!
Good job hiding your sinister intentions! ; )

I am not, nor have I ever been, a cat.

There are times when I wish I was a werecat, though. Then I could reenact the opening scene from Thriller.

Decided a few months ago to put our house on the market and move into a townhouse, as wed finally decided that home-ownership was not for us. We're about to sign our final acceptance before closing, so I'm super excited to not have to pay for two houses anymore!

Me too! (the two house part)

We moved months ago, but our old house finally closes in a few weeks and we'll be rid of it.

 Same for me as well. But I've had my albatross for quite a few years.
