I keep applying for jobs, and nothing comes of them. Frustrating. Though if my colleague/former sort-of-coworker at Duke doesn't find an RN for their currently open research position, she said she'd let me know and they could expand it to a pharmacist position. That should be soon; she said the end of this month. I'd still have to apply, of course, but this time I could put a Duke employee's name on the application and get them to look at it for more than a second.
If that doesn't pan out, I flipped through the Durham Tech course catalog for fall. There's a 3-month course in project management for $124 plus fees & textbook, and it qualifies you to take this exam. The thing I worry about is whether all the business speak will make me want to stab somebody. I poked the internet to see what sort of jobs are available, and there are some at the local drug research wossnames, as well as in IT and all that. So there's a possibility of adding a credential that would help me find work. (And the more advanced certification says it's internationally recognized.)
I don't know. I hate the idea of going back to school, and I don't want something that takes away from my writing time, but I'm so tired of worrying about money. :/
