Im so tired and empty today. I dont want to focus on it too much for fear of doing any permanent damage, but I am very frustrated with Novartis right now. Im not getting a ¼ of the training I need. I might as well have taken this week off for all George can meet with me or provide me with any useful information. Every day he says well meet more or longer or about more substance the next day and each day so far weve met for snatches that make me want to cry. I know that in a month it w...Sunday, July 18th 2004
Well, I start my new job tomorrow! Im looking forward to it, and am not nervous. Ill be meeting C early for training, then I have a corporate orientation, and then C for the rest of the day.

Today is my last day at the group home. I am so restless. In fact, Im staying just so I can say goodbye to my two afternoon staff who I think would be very hurt if I didnt stay.

Just got a call from a person who didnt identify themselves who start...

Many things will change - my schedule, my income, my flexibility. It is a change I want very much, especially now that I have it (!), but still a major change.I've gotten lots of great feedback from coworkers as well as my superivsors - including the company president. It is very satisfying to feel as if I have done a great job he...

I have so much news and its been so long since Ive journaled. Ive had so many thoughts and Im not sure where to start.I was offered the job at Novartis, and I accepted it. I was offered $50,000/year which was much higher than I had expected and very exciting. I do have to start in two weeks, however, so I dont get any time off between jobs. I gave BG, the VP of Program Services at DCI my notice on Friday and the word spread quickly. I had somewhat of a negative interaction with SN ab...
