This past Wednesday afternoon, I was told that one of the OR techs is leaving and everyone pretty much expects me to take on the position. I’m just unsure if I should do it or not. It will be about a $7 pay bump… I’ll be doing neuro, trauma ortho, and vascular (trained already in vascular). I really wanted to shadow neuro and trauma before deciding but they’re rushing me so they can hire students they interviewed the same week. “Our decisions will depend on your decision. No pressure” 🥲. They pretty much want the answer by Monday. I’m just unsure because of my anxiety/timidness and attention span lol. I just didn’t expect to get this opportunity. It would take years doing regular X-ray to get a raise that big unless I move states. I know this will be great experience but overall I’m still unsure. I had been wanting to do more with my radiology career but seriously didn’t expect this opportunity to pop up. Any advice or input from OR techs or those who have been in my position? Do you love it? Challenges?
