I dream of one, bright sunny day
Upon the bench, unassigned I lay
They have a role, “are you free?” they say
Not that client, my tone so sad
The next 6 months, will be so bad

But not as bad as they could’ve been
If I’d not taken the chance I’d seen
And ended up on the unemployment line
While my former colleagues were all doing fine
Hanging up their call centre phones and living in their fancy homes.
If only I’d not been a supercilious ass
And taken the short term hospital pass
To help those others most in need
And saved my career yes in deed
The moral of the tale is clear as sin
Short term pain leads to long term win!

I see many of my colleagues complaining about the same thing and I sympathize, but it is better than being laid off.

Do consulting firms really get projects to work in call centers?

I don’t really know the details, but I think there’s staff augmentation work to help with the surge in lending

My smaller firm is literally giving 4 mos of resources to clients as investments, the work is usually awesome (ie csuite or vps growth projects) but fuck we’re giving the product away.

Has anyone left healthcare and is now really happy? I’m an MSN, RN with 12 years hospital experience. I’m burned out and tired of making crap pay. I have an opportunity outside of healthcare that would pay more and challenge me in new ways that I haven’t experienced before. It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for. I would appreciate any input!!!!

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
