Ok it annoyed me when I was job hunting and couldn't find anything but....

I FINALLY GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Subacute....not my dream job but a real RN job and one I have potential to grow with!!! I'm so excited!!!!!

But now here's the question....How do I not feel bad about quitting the LTC place I've worked at for 10 years who paid for my schooling....? They don't have a job for me, so it's kinda logical I'd be leaving. I also have to pay them back for the schooling.

But I'm still so so so so happy!!!!!!:nurse::nurse::nurse::nurse::nurse:

Congrats :yeah:

They knew you were going to school, they know they don't have a job for you, so they shouldn't be surprised you are leaving.

Just hand deliver a nice hand delivered letter of resignation to your manager that includes thanks for the opportunities and the positive experiences.

Congradulations! I'm sure your employer will understand. Their loss, if they can't find a position for their 10 year veteran. I don't see why you have to pay them back, but maybe that's a new arrangement these days. I remember a previous employer I had about 25 years ago, that paid RN's to go back to school, just for working for them. No conditions. I was able to get my BSN back then. I guess those sweet deals are gone. Don't feel guilty, they should have paid for your education without conditions. After all, they benefited from the services you provided their patients with the additional knowledge and education.:yelclap:

I could work for them. Since I already have a job with them I could continue to work the same job and hope something comes along. But this new job pays a lot more and has much more opportunity for advancement for what I eventually want to do. So instead of working the same job after all my schooling and passing the NCLEX, I'm gonna leave so I have to pay them. With the increase in salary it's actually worth it.
