I just have to share, as I have just landed, what I feel is the best position I have EVER been offered!
I have accepted a full time position, at a Mental Health facility here in a rural area of W. Washington! I have been offered not only a totally excellent salary, benefits, tutition reimbursement to start immediately, but free housing, with utilities paid on the 17 acre property with a lake!!! And free meals! Their also going to have an onsite daycare, so I can bring my grandson to work with me!!!!
At this point I need somebody to pinch me quick!!! Because I'm having a hard time taking all of this in!:chuckle

:rotfl: :roll You a mess!!!! :chuckle Thanks Teshiee and ktwlpn:kiss! I will keep you updated, as I start on Monday. There is a long story behind this all, but the real deal is, I will be in on the ground floor of getting this facility up and running! I believe this position will be challenging, and rewarding also:D

Congratulations Brown - sounds wonderful. Is there an inside joke to the previous post (I hope)?

Brownie,
As someone born and raised in Spokane, Wa... living in PA your new position is just the kind of thing I hope to find when I'm done with school!! I'm SO jealous!!!
Congrats and do keep us posted on all the wonderful adventures this new chapter brings you!
Awww Thanks peggysue, 3rdShiftGuy, efiebke, RN~in~CT, Shamrock, and Lecia:kiss! I'm sooo excited, that I can hardly wait until tomorrow! This should be an exciting time, as this is the first time, that I will be in on the ground floor of a project!
I can hardly believe it, and just hoping all that has been said, will come to pass! I will have to wait until they get the modular homes set up, but until then I will have a suite at the facility. Right now the schedule is 4 on and 4 off, and 12hr shifts! But I'm the first nurse hired, and I have the option of how I want to have things set up!
They're still in the process of hiring people, getting furniture, equitment, and there will only be a total of 70 residents. I have met the woman who will be our administrator, once she is trained. She is a ARNP, my boss to be, and I liked her from the moment I saw her! She will only be with us for two years, as she is going to open her own facility then. She reeks of knowledge, and has a strong personality, but laid back at the same time, if that makes sense.
Unfortunately I'm not sure of pc availiability until I get settled. So I might not be back on the boards until Friday, which is my first day off.
Yes Shamrock, it's an inside joke from a previous thread:chuckle
Lecia, you can always come back to Washington, and work with me:D. I'll let everyone know how things turn out though, but I like the way the project manager thinks! They're also offering job sharing, and we will have a dog, and a cat for the facility.
