lol I've been getting shipping confirmations for stuff I ordered before I learned I was jobn't

and I'm just going: "Welp, hope the serotonin from these lasts a while"

one of the ladies from a different department (who I worked pretty closely with) found me on LinkedIn this afternoon, she's SO MAD on my behalf, which is gratifying in a way?

yeah it is

and she's got a friend at one of the religious hospitals looking for an Associate Physician Compensation Analyst, which I don't think I'm qualified for (also I am Bad With Numbers That Way) but I'm going to check it out and throw my hat in anyway

(mostly bc it starts at $30 an hour, which is more than I was making before, though that's because they want someone with a bachelor's 'or relevant experience' which IDK if I have or not)

is returning them not an option?

aww that was so nice of that lady to reach out

fingers crossed for your hat

Maybe? But like, it's stuff I actually want, and I'd feel worse about returning it

(also returns are difficult for me because of having to get to the post office which is a mile walk or a $10-$15 ride)

and some of it was clearance anyway, so can't return that

and then some of it is stuff I've actually been needing (like a pill crusher for my toothpaste tablets - my poor crumbling tooth can't even handle crunching those now)
