Bad news first, GREAT news next!

So, my last blog, I posted that I had an interview in an ortho office that I was super excited about. I ended up getting the job and it was short-lived to say the least. I was taking a major pay/hours cut which was really surprising to me because, in dental, if you work in a specialty the pay is typically greater. I didn't care at the time because I really wanted to work there. Well, when I went on my interview, I let the girl know that I had a vacation planned for the end of May. She said that wouldn't be a problem she'd just mark it on the calendar and it would be fine. When they called to offer me the job, I let her know again about the vacation. So, when my vacation rolled around, I went and had a blast visiting my family in Iowa! When I got back however, it wasn't as much fun returning to work. I get to work that day and work as usual; we were seeing patients and I was always nervous anyway because working in general dentistry and ortho are COMPLETELY different. So, towards the end of the day, the doctor comes into the lab where I am with two other staff members and proceeds to tell me that my vacation is over and when I am here he expects me to be working and presentable because my hair looks like crap (his exact words). The whole time his is doing this in front of the other girls and I am mortified. By the way, I just had my hair in a ponytail and it didn't look like crap. So, needless to say, I don't work there anymore! I should have never taken the job anyway because I knew in my gut that it wasn't the right place for me to be.

However, I am really excited because I just got a new job in Coppell at a Pediatric Dental office! The pay, benefits, people, etc are AWESOME! I was not very excited to drive to Coppell everday, but all the good things outweigh the drive; plus it isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be!

Anyway, on a different note, Little Man is getting so big and is learning so much everyday. He cracks me up....he'll say "hello Mommy" in and English accent!
He had so much fun watching fireworks for the 4th; I was shocked that they didn't scare him! I need to post some picks soon...I always forget about my blog :)
