Ok, I graduated May 08, couldn't find a job in the Bay Area (CA) but got a job offer up in Northern California in a rural hospital in a city I adore. I interviewed, they gave me an offer contingent on drug test which I recently took. Upon emailing Nurse Manager the other day they want me to start November 15, 2008.
Questions - Don't I have to get a clean slate from the tox screen first? They said they'd let me know results (which should be fine) within 2-14 days. It's been about a week.
Do I need another written offer or if the tox screen is clear that offer is "good"?
They know I am moving 3 hours to their location and have two children. One major obstacle I am dealing with is that I am awaiting a large sum of money (that should have came in last month!) to pay for my family's move, new rental house, deposit, movers, etc. My money has to come in soon but I do not know exactly when as insurance companies keep saying the check is in the mail!! So, do I tell the nurse manager that I am awaiting monies to pay for my move and will keep her posted?
Obviously, this is a small hospital that I really want to work at. I have been honest with them about everything else but I do not want to appear to have problems and they have to "wait" for me - new grad positions are so hard to come by around here! Orientation is Nov 15.... Do you believe a smaller hosp will work with me if the money does not come in?
Arggg, Can you tell I do not like waiting for other people to do their jobs (the insurance people). I want to move now and start working!
Yes this is my first nursing job ever.
I know i'll tell her, just need to know I am doing this right.
I've checked out the rural nursing tab on allnurses as well. Any guidance in this area - Thanks.
Yep totally illegal... His mom has done so many other things I cannot even begin to explain. My kids are really angry with her. To go to court, it would be a long civil battle that I would rather just walk away from. (Although I did file my ex's classic car as stolen because I hold the title and registration & she refuses to return the car - she took it from his residence less than 24 hours after his unexpected death). So, if she ever tries to drive it, or re-register it, cops will descend on her. My son was promised this car when he turned 16 by his dad so I really want to get it back for him.
I believe in Karma and his mom will get hers. She obviously is not happy with her life now and has lost her only grandkids over this. Pretty sad.

From what you have said, she certainly does deserve to lose her grandchildren. Rather, she seems to have earned their anger. What kind of parent (referring to her as a mother and grandmother) would be so selfish as to allow children to suffer because of greed and materialism?
If I were you I would call the insurance company and let them know where the car is. Once you leave she may destroy it so your son can't have it. Best to secure it now so your son has something promised to him by his father. And, it is time this witch learns that she isn't going to get away with lies and being a thief-a lesson to your child that crime doesn't pay. Yes, she will get hers; but, you may be the one needed to initiate the process.
My kids and I are finally settled and I began working in the small rural hospital on the coast! It is truly the perfect place for us. Everybody is nice, the weather is nice and cool and I love my job! ***Thanks for all of your advice*** I am grateful to you all.
I have yet to rectify the mother in law problem....that will come in time. I am a firm believer in Karma.
