I was really excited! Someone actually called me for an interview!! All of us LPNs were laid off in favor of medication aides over a year ago. Unemployment ran out long ago. I am an experienced LPN of eight years in many areas. I am also 55yrs old. It has been a long, very depressing time trying to find work. Some days dont even get dressed and leave the hair up in the ever present bun on top of my head. You know, the sweatpants, and wheres my bra again? So it felt nice to doll up and head out for an interview. Arrived 10 minutes early and waited for 30 minutes. DON finally comes for me, gives me a tour and we sit to interview. Its going well, we talk nursing and patient care. I felt like a nurse again. Tells me that they don't pay for experience there. New grad and eight year nurse make the same. uh,,ok. Then she says the position is only for one eight hour shift a week. It was listed part time. uhh...ok. Talks about orientation, etc. Its feeling good. THEN...she says " I searched for you on Facebook, I couldn't find you?" Trying to keep my jaw from dropping I inform her that I do not have a Facebook account. " You don't?! Why? That's how I track my employees, are you planning on getting one?" I informed her that I did not. I was then given the " I have other applicants to interview, and the interview was abruptly over. No one wants us older experienced nurses. Its time for me to face reality. Anyone have any suggestions for work from home nursing?? Thanks for listening
