I was the front desk receptionist/administrative assistant...I got a lawyer...he said that all they have to do is post the job under another job title and they will save their butts....well I guess they were smarter than I gave them credit for because that is exactly what they did...they were not very nice people to work for anyway...I started that job in Aug of 2005 and was still looking for something else because I didn't like the people I worked for...I couldn't find anything!! I am still looking and STILL cant' find anything...I have always wanted to do Phlebotomy...only thing is the class doesn't start intil March!! I have to find something in the meantime...we have bills to pay that unemployment is only for another 5 weeks...It's terrible out there...there is absolutely NO JOBS!! and the jobs they have are like 7.00 per hour...I am 49 years old!!!7.00 an hour isn't going to cut it..
Good luck in your job search! |
Aww I'm sorry to hear about your troubles! I have a lot of respect for phlebotomists.. I'm starting a new job and had to get blood work done for it. My company has nurses on-site to do all of that, but NONE of the nurses could get blood from my veins. My right arm is all bruised from it.
So they sent me to Quest Diagnostics to have the phlebotomists there do it and let me tell you, the woman there did it in 2 seconds, it didn't hurt and NO bruise! I hope it all works out for you!
