papa and co come and went... on the whole, they were pleasant enough, and the fact that I was working on most days and they usually come home late meant that I do not have interact with them that much, but it was definitely awkward sleeping with someone you don't know... went for dinner on the day they arrived at Ribs and Rumps, and then went for a day trip to Hunter Valley... good weather, had some wine, cheese, and had Takeru for dinner... otherwise, nothing very exciting... the only thing that annoyed me was that there were stuff everywhere and the whole house looked really messy... anyway, after they left, papa and I went to Auburn Home Makers centre thinking to buy the TV unit, but ended up buying 2 rugs for the bedroom...
work-wise... Nat finally started on 2 days and Yin does the other 3 days... it was actually good in the fact that bcos Nat is very experienced, she kind of guides both Yin and I as to what we should be doing with pts... and Rachel will be rotating into MRT from next week... not that I don't want her to come back, but I would prefer that Yin stays in MRT... and my student is finishing up this week, the good thing about student supervision is that yes, you get to explain things aloud and forces you to think abt things and your clinical reasoning, but on the other hand, it's quite limiting in the amt of freedom I have in doing things and can be quite stifling at times... cos things take twice the time to do... and... of course, had a MET call with a patient in the toilet, which was not as bad as our rehab reg happened to be in the room at the time, so it was not that nerve-wrecking, and then of course, decided to take the same pt to the kitchen today, and of course, the same thing happened, and had to hit the MET call button, everyone came rushing over into the tiny kitchen, and I felt quite useless standing there in the corner, not able to get out at the time... this time was more nerve-wrecking cos it was only the patient and the husband there at the time... and there were ALOT of people eventually... now in addition to making me even more wary of getting this patient up, I am probably going to be wary of using the kitchen again... oh and abit of gossip, which truly I am still in shock over... Yin actually likes my student, and she is genuinely upset that he is attached already... and I am there trying my best to console her, whilst I am like... he is way too young, and he is not that great, well to me anyway, but hey, I am judging him from a supervisory perspective... I still am not quite over you know who, time is ticking, and when Jan comes, it is truly time to say goodbye...
job-seeking wise... TACP... did not get the position, the feedback was honest and brutal in fact, I was embarrassed during the feedback cos I actually said that I thought I did better this time... Westmead Private... did not think I did well during the interview, and I was not too impressed with the interview panel... and for some reason, I actually was offered the position, BUT at a lower pay and no salary packaging benefits and I will lose all my leave... so I am most likely going to turn this one down, which hopefully will not come back and bite me on the ass... which brings me to the fact that I am putting all my eggs in one basket, namely Hornsby rehab... and if I don't get the job there, then that's it, I am for sure stuck at Nepean for much much longer... not that I don't like MRT, out of all the other positions on offer, I would still prefer MRT...
