    My Ex-boss Called Me

    Last Friday I recieved a surprise call from my ex-boss. I quit my job 16 months ago. I was having a lot of problems with my neck and back due to a fall I had taken several years ago and do to the fact that I developed a pinched nerve and artritis, very painful.
    So he calls last Friday and he wants me back. I was so shocked. We talked a bit and I told him I would love to come back. Great. Then I tell him about my neck and back problems and explain to him that I can only work part time as sometimes I am in a lot of pain and I get charlie horses in my fingers, arms, etc. He said ok. Then he asks me how much I made before I left, I tell him and he offers me more money. Is this cool or what? Not only do I get to work with a incredibly intelligent DR but a truly nice man. I start next week. I am nervous and excited. I will miss being able to sleep in and do what I want all day, but I will love having spending money again. I hope that my neck and back hold up and do not give me too much trouble. Oh and the best part is I get to wear scrubs again, I don't have to buy office cloths. I love wearing scrubs.

    Sounds good. If you enjoyed working there before, why did you leave?
    Will you have medical coverage with this job? These are the questions I
    would mull over.

    Duh, you left because you had trouble with the pain.Sorry I skimmed over
    that part.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
