I went in and interviewed with the Director of Construction and altho he asked the question, "You are planning on staying put, this time, aren’t you?" I smiled and guaranteed him that I wasn’t going anywhere and I wasn’t.
I started the following week. It was a job I had dreamed of, I learned so much, I learned new computer programs, I learned how to burn mylars and then make prints from them, bind prints, etc. I worked with the men on the Master Facility Plan and we put hundreds of hours into measuring every inch of the hospital. I met and worked with outside architects, engineers, city officials, the Hospital Board, Administration. I did not have a sit down at your desk type job, I was on the go constantly. I was envied because I had a job a lot of people would have loved except they didn’t know what it was, until I started doing it. I expanded the job and responsibilities and made my job a terrific job. It was the beginning of finding myself in my forties and I loved it. I never felt so complete and my baby was still number one and every minute away from the office was with her. She was in the hospital day care. I enjoyed both life’s to the fullest and was awarded employee of the month which was an honor because I was recognized for all the projects I had accoomplished. I had arrived and I was loving it.
