Getting Started at New Job

Monday I went to the home care agency to drop off some forms. They gave me my first assignment already! Can you believe it! They sure are in a hurry. They gave me a stethoscope & blood pressure cuffs (mine were old). I also need to buy a new lab coat. My old lab coat is looking shabby.

I found out why they're in such a hurry. Other than the supervisor the owner hired, I'm the first employee! It's a national chain, but this is a new branch.

Today my first assignment fell through due to miscommunication with the patient. :-( They offered me another assignment, but I had a prior commitment that day. It's a new branch of the agency, so it might take a while to build up the clientele.
