I started working at a university this week. I LOVE IT! They have great benefits including full insurance that they pay for. Vacation time, sick time, personal time, and "hurricane" pay. I get my own laptop in 6 months to keep!
My health insurance doesn't kick in until 30 days after I started.
I can also go to school there for ¼ of the tuition. It totally ROCKS!
Today they took me out to lunch and gave me a laptop bag with the university logo on it and also a leather day planner.
They only downside to the job is I have to take pics of the procedures the PA's (physician assistants) do. Like stitches in pigs feet and chicken breast. Phlebotomy, and also the cadavers when they dissect them

I also have to proctor the exams when they are given and next month I have to fly to Miami for new employee orientation and I'm TERRIFIED of airplanes
This is truly my dream job. I love the people I'm working with. Mostly doctors and PA students.... I just had to boast

That sounds fantastic! I'm so pleased you've landed such a great job, especially after the disappointment of the last one.

Congratulations! I don't know if I could handle being around all the stuff that the physicians asst's are doing. I saw a dead frog today, and immediately I wanted to run away! Good about the tuition and other benefits though!
