I moved here for the weather, that is what I tell others anyway. I really moved here because my husband was offered a good job and where we were living had little prospects. It is often said, happy wife, happy life, however in my world it's happy king happy kingdom. He is a good man. I am just usually more flexible than him. Our relationship is a whole other story. This is about the dream job.
After my husband was offered a job, I started applying and was offered the dream job. I had worked in this field for a while including completing a fellowship at this very hospital. I got the job and it all started so hopeful. The job was what I expected for the most part but there was no respect. I mean none. The physicians refused to consider me as a professional. The entire framework was built on us doing their paperwork. Paperwork is not my job, well not other people's paperwork anyway. So this has been a struggle over the last year and a half. I slowly gained ground and built relationships. I really started to earn respect. The fellowship coordinator transfered to another position and of course I thought...here is my chance.
Ive completed the fellowship, built a program in my last job, and all the work I've been doing here. I'm a natural choice. Interview went phenomenal...they hired someone else...in less than 24 hours from the interview. This person has no experience in what we do. Worked in another field for many years. I'm so confused and truly hurt.
So I start looking for a new job because...why would I want to stay in a position that obviously doesn't value me. I apply for another position where my coworker also applies. There are two positions and the odds look good. I don't get it. My coworker gets the job because...no kidding...we know her. I am so discouraged. Working hard really doesn't get you anywhere in the current system I'm in. I, again, am devastated. And in the meantime get to train the new woman taking the first position.
I get paid really well in my current position but money has never been a motivating factor for me. I need to feel good about what I do.
I needed to tell someone, even if it is just a dark abyss of people who don't know me. I appreciate anyone reading this.
