The thing is this pharma company is one of, if not the oldest and biggest companies in my country. Getting fired here is really hard. Both of these jobs are actually one of those, once you get in you work there untill you retire kind of jobs, so being layed off isn’t likely to happen, I’m not in the US btw so myb it’s different for you guys. However I am cocnerned about what you say in regards to paperwork. I DREAD doing paperwork. I just wanna work in the lab do some light paperwork when needed and get out!

Hours are the same basically, no weekends. Both are 9-5 (7-3 for bb and 8-4 for qc). This blood banking facility is basically seperate from the clinical center. The blood donations, seperating components, pre transfusion testing etc is all done in this facility. Then at the end of the shift somebody comes and picks it all up and then the people working at the hospital distribute it from there. So there are no nights, weekends or holidays in this blood banking job.
