I hear what you are saying Sky about finding another job when I'm already employeed. I can guarentee you this, in my line of work, it doesn't matter if I'm employeed when I'm searching or not. The agencies are desperate for good support providers and my supervisor will be a good reference, along with the agency nurse and a few others who will give me good references. I'm really not that concerned at this point....just sounding off more than anything. Oh, and I'm not quitting without giving a 2 week notice....I never burn my bridges like that.
I have been wanting to leave this particular agency for quite some time now. This happening just brought it full circle for me and gave me the push I needed to move on. There is some past history where another area of the agency put the screws to me as a home provider which has made my tenure there somewhat difficult.
Money wise, I can't afford to be out of work for too long. I do have savings, but I really don't want to dip into it. The other option is that I might be able to put more hours in at the newspaper. My boss has mentioned that he is working on getting another fulltime position to open up and he would like to offer it to me. So that is a consideration too.
Thanks for your concern

Much appreciated! And you are right...I will have some free time to unpack and get settled, so it's not all bad!!!
Hugsssss
