So I heard back from the Kissimmee job and I'll start on the 28th
as an Adult Senior Counselor helping those recovering from substance abuse. I'm
nervous working with a population that I haven't before, but excited to learn
new things. I'm worried that the hours won't count towards my MFT licensure, so
I need to find that out ASAP. See when I applied, it said family and youth, but
then it seems to only be adults. But I interviewed anyway because I mean at
this moment I can't be picky you know.
Now the Tampa job
that focuses on going into at-risk family’s homes is soooo down my alley and I
could learn so much. I had my 3rd interview on Thursday and it was full of
clinical scenarios that I felt very good about. Just made me want to work there
more. They want me to do a ride along... I don't know when I can do that, when
I don't come back till the 25th and they closed on the 26th and I start the
other job on the 28th... Too much going on. I like this job because it pays
2000 a yr. more and I automatically will get a 3000 raise every 6 months for 2
years. They pay for licensure. The only thing is, it's in Tampa and while the
hubby is on board to move, we would need a place to stay and find him another
job ASAP or else we would essentially be in the same boat we are in now with
one income.
I'm starting to
think maybe I can talk with the director and see if maybe I can start later
than Jan 3. Maybe I can try it again in early summer. It's sad because it seems
it would be great and I know the Tampa job is more work: 24hr on call on
weekdays, driving as far as 80 miles to visit homes (they reimburse me for it).
Court cases etc.
So I think what is
best for my family is to remain here and gain a new professional facet. I think
it'll be interesting, stressful, overwhelming and great all at once. Hopefully
the Tampa job can work something out. If not then it wasn't meant to be. I just
hope I’m not mistakenly going left when I should be going right on what God has
planned for me.
Time will
tell.....
