As most of you who have been reading along know, I have not been happy at my job. I have stuck around for the pay and the maternity leave. But as of yesterday that has all changed. I was only given a 3 month contract, with some ridiculous comments on why. There is a chance it may be renewed - but I have a feeling if I was pregnant, that won't happen. Funding is there - so I am not sure what she is playing at (I have theories, but I don't think it is wise to share on here!).
At any rate - after the major stress of how we are going to live, a few things happened.
That genetic counselling course? Submitted my application! I was going to wait a year, but now I see no reason not to.
New job? Found three to apply for - two of which I am excited about. The fact I am finding jobs makes me hopeful.
Dear husband? Rebuilding his work porfolio.
Baby plans - will NOT be on hold. I think the saddest thing would be us not trying due to this. I may not get the same maternity benefits, I may be studying, and life will be hard, but I have never been one to shy away from it all.
Now I just have to work out how to not completely disconnect from this job (unlike my office buddy who said she wouldn't come back! Onya babe! You will be amazing!!!)
Wishing you the best for the future!! I am sorry things are stressful right now. Hope you get one of the two jobs you are excited about!
