I received the call today early in the morning (shh.. I was still in bed at that time), letting me know that I got the job! I was very surprised. I mean, VERY surprised. At the same time, I was perplexed and confused. Last night (the interview was yesterday afternoon), Eric and I had a late night chatting (at 1 AM), talking through about whether I should peruse this job if I got it.
Why??
The main reason to why I wanted to quit working in my previous job in Canberra, was because of the money making industry of the clinic in IVF industry. I did not like the environment where the clinic director charges astronomical prices for patients despite showing no respect and care for the many poor couples, desperate to have a baby. The only ones that he 'loves' were the rich people, while the others were pushed aside, neglected, sometimes forcing them to take medication which were not the right one for their situation for months. (sigh)
I saw a lot of greed and self gain in this industry. I do not want to be apart of this.
But now, I am granted this job opportunity again by God. I wonder if this could be a new start for me in the fertility industry again. I thank God for the opportunity I had in granting me the skills I had in my previous work place, which these experiences in turn helped me to get this current job. I pray that I will not forget to look back every now and then to re-access myself if I am being suck into the vicious cycle of greed and self gain in this IVF industry.
I look forward to the opening of doors and opportunities, forming better and closer relationships with the fertility specialist, and help uphold the TCM industry in fertility care. Pray that I will use my skills to assist the patients that comes through the doors every Saturday.
I will be working at their new clinic (only 8 months old!) on Saturdays. There will be plenty of opportunity for me to spread my arms and work on other days in the near future as the only acupuncturist in the clinic. =D Pray that I will be wise in managing and not be overdrained.
Next week I may sit in to observe how they operate in the clinic. So I may start work as soon as the week after. =)
Happy. ^_^

A new clinic...only 8 months old. That is good as you will be considered as pioneer there and will be able to set the tone to a more caring working conditions.
