For those who are paying attention: I have celebrated my infamous 9-11 here in Melbourne. Been given the termination paperwork at my job of 8 years today after being sent home and stay away from the office on 9-11. Misconception and disception: thought things were the same as the projects I worked in America - wrong! Note to all: when one is terminated, the employer does not care about you and that you have traveled half-way around the world to join their team! Some happy birthday I have been having - had to post the hot Italian while this crap was all going down.
Options of going back to Nursing; active licenses in US or reciprocity here in Australia. Otherwise I have applied for 2 jobs here in Melbourne and 2 jobs at Community Memorial Hosptital in Ventura.
Life is definately a journey with humbled events. Now have experienced a layoff and now termination - what fun at this age. This experience is like going through a divorce! Meanwhile lives are lost in Samoa - WTF!!

Hope you come back to Ventura. We miss you here.
OMG! I can't believe it...I'm so shocked. Was there any clue or sign about this?! I really hope you come back to Ventura.
Wow Cheryl! Sending good vibes your way! I can relate as I've been there, albiet not quite so far from "home". Isn't it amazing how quickly the atmosphere can change with an employer? How fast that foot comes to kick you to the curb. Amazing! I wish you clarity while you make some tough decisions in the coming months. Of course, your friends in Ventura know what THEY want you to do. (o:
Best Whshes, my friend!!
Thanks Ginny - I will be enjoying a 6-week holiday before my departure from this country. I have a different direction in mind when I return.
