I have worked on my L&D floor for 2.5 years. I took a 7 week break and went to another hospital on their LDRP floor closer to my home, but I didn't like it and went back to my current hospital. That was a big mistake.
I do not want to work nights, holidays, weekends, or 12-hour shifts anymore. I want a more balanced home life. I applied to one of our hospital-based offices in the same building I currently work, in the maternal fetal medicine office. Because I left, I have technically only been in my position for 2 months. Some managers will not let you transfer positions until you've been at your current position for 6 months (even though I've been there 2.5 years at this point). Should I be upfront with my supervisor and let her know I applied? She probably won't be happy with me, but she knew nights wasn't my favorite before.
Thank you.
