Okay, I am still waiting for the IRS to call back but I finally got a job. I called my old job when I was furloughed in July. They would not let me come back because I had been working on clinic accounts for the past 4 years and they said that they were only hiring for acute care (hospital) accounts and I had to have been working on them within 3 years. RIDICULOUS!!!! I have been transcribing for over 16 years and most of that has been acute care. Well they said that they would keep me in mind if a clinic account position became available. I thought "yeah right, you won't be calling me back." Well I was wrong I received an email last week that they just received a new clinic account and would I still be interested. So as of next Monday I will be working as a medical transcriptionist again. They have already sent the computer equipment, with a note that I needed to set it up immediately to make sure that there was no damage during shipping. Well........
Since I have not been working at home since February, my poor old desk has been piling up with bills and junk. I had to hurry and clean it off so that I could at least set it up and test the equipment. I have my desk in our storage room and I have had the thoughts that I would clean up the storage room and get it all organized while I was furloughed, well.....I found games on facebook and became an addict and therefore the storage room is a HUGE MESS!!!! Now John is saying that we need to give the old desk (it is his dad's) to his sister who wants it and then bring my real computer desk home and set it up. Now not only do I have to clean it off to set up but now I have to clean out my stuff from the drawers and probably everything that has been left there by his dad....UGHHH!!!! But I definitely prefer my desk to his.
I have to say that I am a horrible procrastinator and that I am easily distracted and I now have the proof, I have been out of work for over 4 months and I have not accomplished a whole lot. I had great intentions but me and my procrastinating has left me with a long list of unaccomplished things.
Now for an update on my dad. He is still recovering from his surgery. The last time I talked to him he is still not able to physically move except his arms and wiggle his toes. I also think that there is some memory loss but overall he is doing okay.
Now I just had to patiently wait for Monday to come so that I can get back into the groove of working but I am so dreading the first week of training.......BORING!!!!! I need a little refresher course but I have to go through the week long torture instead. In reality it would only take a couple of days to do the training but people ask STUPID QUESTIONS, over and over and over again. So I have to sit there and bite my tongue and listen to their stupid questions and remember that I am getting paid to sit there and listen, my only salvation. I think that last 2 days I will get to do some live work and that will hopefully make it all worthwhile, we will see.
In case I don't get on before, Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!!.
