Wow...Unexpected Compliment

I know I've been a little lax in the posting department...I'll get a chance to catch up in a few days, I think.

But, I have just a bit of time to tell you that I received a phone call from my co-instructor. Her main job is in the Pathology Learning Center at BHTS. Some "suits" from a neighboring STATE university was in town, discussing the lab scientist program.

Some of the current students have never done any sort of phlebotomy. So, my name was put out as someone who was very capable of teaching these students the correct way to draw blood. From what I was told, their response was, "She's just exactly the kind of person we're looking for!"

And, then they named a figure they were willing to pay. And, you know...I'm VERY willing to work for them at the figure they named. So, it looks like some of my afternoons this summer will be utilized differently than afternoon naps in the sunshine!

They have not contacted me yet, so I won't consider this confirmed until I hear from them. But...wow! I like being offered jobs I don't have to interview for!

I have yet to hear from the BHTS person who will be the negotiator in this deal. So, until I hear from her, I'm really going to put it on my brain's back burner. If it turns out, fine, if not, I wasn't supposed to do it. Money is nice, but so are my afternoon naps! LOL
