A car started to merge into my lane where I was and it was either hit her or the guardrail. I chose the guardrail and luckily my car isn’t too badly damaged but of course when I called the police, she denied all fault and there is no way that I could prove it.

If I had a dash cam, it would have been obvious. As I was talking with the trooper I ordered one to be delivered tonight.

To that lady- screw you for trying to merge into a lane with someone there. I was there first and just because you want to be in that lane doesn’t mean you can cut someone off.

Stay safe out there guys.

I applied to a float pool position at my local children’s hospital. It was between all their med-surg units and their PICU/NICU, every third weekend/holiday. They called me two days after I applied and scheduled an interview for about a month later (it is now two weeks away). I’ve never worked with kids but have med-surg and MICU experience.

I just got an email that the float position was filled but I’m still being considered for other positions. The recruiter said she isn’t sure what positions I’m being considered for but said I should keep my interview. However, the only postings currently are for positions I either don’t want and most of them are every other weekend.

I know it seems silly but I don’t want to work every other weekend again. I work every third now and it’s great. I also really wanted to float as a nurse as the job I do now I go between all different units and I like not being in the same place all the time.

My question is do I be firm and tell them I don’t want any of their other positions? I’d rather apply again if they post another float position but I don’t want to be pushed into a job I don’t want. I’m just worried if cancel the interview I might not get another opportunity to work there as I might get blacklisted. My husband says I should just do the interview knowing I will turn down the job but I feel like that would lead to me getting blacklisted too.

The recruiter did say she would get back to me and let me know what I would be considered for and said it could potentially be a float position but again, they have none posted.

Any advice is appreciated! I’m trying hard not to be upset but I really not sure what to do.
