Need Job Advice!

Published

I am living in Hawaii right now with my military boyfriend, working at a government contract job at the military hospital that will soon be ended due to the position being permanently filled, just not exactly sure when yet. However, I applied for two per diem jobs and have been offered both. My boyfriend just found out he will be transferred to his next station at the end of August. Is it wrong of me to accept these per diem jobs knowing that I will only be with them until end of August? I am feeling very conflicted! Part of me thinks it is wrong/the other part of me thinks per diem is more of a temporary thing anyways.Would appreciate any advice!

No reason not to take the position. You have valid reasons for position changes. Per diem is in it's nature a temporary thing. Just make sure you give notice when it is time to go.

If you need to work, and they need nurses, then take the job. We have military wives where I work, and some of them are only here a few months. I hope you enjoy your time in Hawaii!
