I'm employed again.

Okay, it’s mundane and pointless to share this, but I like sharing good news with friends. :slight_smile:

It looks like I’m going to be working outside the home again after a nine month hiatus. I start Monday as a QA lab person for a pharmaceutical company just outside of town.

I’m looking forward to it (talking to adults again, not being flat broke) but still a bit nervous. My son will be going to day care at a friend’s house, and he seems to be entranced by all the other little people there.

Congratulations, Prairie Rose, and best of luck in your new job!!

Not merely good news but great news. Congratulations.

I’ve often wondered who was in charge of the pharmaceutical QA on all the pills I take. Now I’ll know.

Maybe I should have been a bit more specific. I’ll be working in the animal health division, doing vaccines for food and companion animals. :slight_smile:

Congrats and good luck :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

Congratulations! Maybe I’m a little slow, but I still don’t understand. You’re working for food? Were you holding a sign by the side of the road when they hired you?

Or are you vaccinating the food? I didnt know food could be vaccinated.

Right on Prairie Rose! If you come across some good drugs, send 'em my way! :wink:

Hee hee…I sort of doubt it, dear. I’ll be doing vaccines only. But I do get reimbursed for any human medicines that the company makes that my household uses.

Arnold, it’s me that’s a little slow tonight! I’ll be working on vaccines for food animals (like chickens and cows) and companion animals (horses, dogs, cats, etc.)

Thanks for the warm wishes, folks!
