I got the job!!!

So the working interview went well on Monday. I was under the impression that it was just going to be the morning half, but they wanted me to come back after lunch. I asked the assistant that was training me if she thought that the doctor liked me and she said that if he didn't like me he'd say, "Let's have Sarah sit in on this one." So that's good, because I assisted him all day. I could that it was going well, because he never had to correct me or give me any pointers about anything I did.



He is left-handed which is cool, because I'm right-handed and now I can use my dominant hand and side a whole lot more and easier. My neck and back are a little sore today though from sitting differently than I am used to.



So Dr. Barnard called me tonight offering me the job, "Hey Tiffany, so everyone seemed to really like you and we want you to be a part of our team." I accepted graciously. He offered my a dollar more than what I'm making now, so that's a plus. AND Chris and I both get full medical insurance in 30 days. Sweet!

So on Monday I have to go in and give my two weeks' notice. Goody. I wonder if Dr. Andrew will beg... I hope he, or Cassandra, get pissed and tell me not to come back. I told Dr. Barnard that and he was like, "Well, let's hope they say that." So wish me luck on that. I just hope I have the nerves to say what is really on my mind and tell them how I feel. We'll see....

Vegas, Temples, Job

So I've been yelled at by many friends, "You need to update your blog..." It's really annoying, so I decided to finally update it so people will get off my back.

So Chris and I were going to go on a Disney cruise in September with Jana and Dave, but that fell through, but I already had the time off work, we decided to go on vacation anyways. Chris has never been to Vegas, and I've wanted to go back for a long time now, so now we're going DRIVE to Vegas!!! Road trip! I am so excited.


We're going to drive to Idaho, down through Utah, Vegas, then up California back to Oregon. We'll be gone 9 days. I can't wait!

One of my many goals is to go and see all the temples in the world, or USA. :) Well, on our trip we'll be stopping at 15! (16, if we stop in Portland on our way out of town.) [Portland, Boise, Twin Falls, Logan, Ogdan, Bountiful, SLC, Jordan River, Oquirrh, Draper, Mt. Timpanogos, Provo, Manti, St. George, Las Veags, and Reno.] I know, I know, all of you are thinking, "Yeah, right. good luck." But I really want to do this. Chris on the other hand.... well, he's along for the ride. This is my goal, and I'd love to make a Temple Book of all the places we've been. I think that'd be pretty sweet.

Let's see, I have another interview on Monday. This is a working interview for a doctor who interviewed me last week. He's LDS and seems very nice. Looks like he treats his employess well. He offers me and my husband full insurance, which is a real biggy (especially after reading Amy's blog). It's in Newberg, which is about 20-25 minutes away. I'm really happy I get to work there first, before accepting the job (if they offer), because I'll be able to see if it's a good fit for me. And we all know that anything is better than where I'm at now. So wish me luck on that.
