my ideal job is enjoying every minute of the work. having fun at the same time. doing work as a part of your life and not just simply work. working on hours as to not sacrificing most of family time. earning enough or more. caring for patients. becoming what a nurse really is.

Thank goodness someone else is thinking like me, what a relief! I also dream of using PDA's to help us organize patient care and documentation.

I am one of those people who currently have an ideal job. I work on special projects for my hospital. I established and now run our summer nursing student extern program ... established and now run our nursing scholarship program ... am liaison with the local schools of nursing ... teach a few staff development classes ... collect and analyze data on our nursing resources... etc.

However, I have learned that no job is perfect as I still would rather stay home and have fun most days!

If I were going to improve my job, I would ...

1. ... make it part-time so that I would have a chance to do some stuff (like publishing) that I don't have time for now. Also, with the extra time off, I would "play" a little more.

2. ... give myself a secretary. I can handle my own clerical needs, but it is time-consuming and sometimes frutstrating for me. My office is COVERED in paper! My desk is about 3 inches deep in the stuff!

The concept of "work" should be abolished, lol
No really,
how about just *enjoy :Melody: living, having Fun with all involved, and get paid for it too*<-- this is the project we're preparing to launch, Yeah!

(The gravel-road there was not exactly a 'Free-way', lol - took 30-some years of more/less down-left awful jobs); but the one I've got payin' the bills now, is Ok:
* 3-miles, 6-lights & 9-minute commute.
* The people are 'easy', meaning fewer neurotic personalities
* Hours are accomadatable
* I can see our Goals, in sight...

Plan on stayin' a year past "We have Lift-off..."
