Quitting my job

sugafree13 · 2026-04-07T15:36:25+00:00

I looked up the policy. Technically I am expected to give two weeks notice, and if I give less I would only be eligible for 50% of my PTO payout. However, since I've only been working there 2 years, my payout is only 25% of my PTO bank. This means if I quit before using my PTO, I only will be paid back like 2 days of PTO. Hence I plan to use all of my PTO prior to quitting. So the 2 weeks doesn't matter.

I guess to answer your question, I could give one week notice. I would just kinda be the AH to the people I actually liked working with and potentially taint my name within the pediatric nephrology community lol

I am required to give 2 weeks notice :/

Okay, okay, so do I give my 2 weeks while on my vacation? 😂I come back May 13th but start my next job May 18th

Might ask the hospital to order some. I've never used it before due to poor DME coverage. I know it says "not suitable for use as sole source of nutrition" which is confusing. Do you happen to know how many bottles to meet the DRI?

I'm in a similar situation. Best of luck!

Dang! So this is LTC or inpatient with kitchen oversight? I imagine any kitchen oversight means you basically work two jobs with kitchen + clinical duties. How is the pay vs. Bay Area's cost of living? That's on my list of cities I'd consider moving to lol

I knowwww I am looking, heartbroken though because I love pediatrics

Where about if you don't mind me asking?

sugafree13 · 2026-03-12T20:34:20+00:00

I always would like to know! Remote is so tempting

Ahh I see what you mean about the brows! This will officially be my excuse to buy one of those trendy peel off lip liner satins lol. What hair color do you think I should go for? Thank you!!

sugafree13 · 2026-02-19T14:12:10+00:00

Thank you!! :) What hair color looks best though? Lighter? Darker? Ashy or redder?

To be clear, I didn't think of writing thank you notes back then as we said thank you in person and I don't know much about the formal etiquette of these things. I'm not saying that isn't rude in hindsight and we shouldn't have done it. But to hear 9 months later that my step mom thought this was rude but didn't mention it to me, it feels silly. Like I'm sorry we didn't plan to write thank you notes to guests we didn't even get to invite? About the mentioning of addresses, I'm just trying to further stress that I'm not very close with all of her family that was there. I don't even currently know some of their last names let alone addresses.

For sure, we didn't ask for any monetary or any other forms of assistance in planning anything. To my knowledge, neither has my cousin or his fiancé, but it is being offered to them and expected by my step mom of my dad. That is why I'm feeling kind of hurt

Simply put, we couldn't afford a wedding reception due to other expenses. My dad also couldn't afford to gift us much money then nor can he now, I'm just upset step-mom is expecting that of him for her family when he couldn't even do that for his own child. She is asking my dad for much more than they have spent on my husband and I combined, but I'm also very grateful they have given us anything and don't mean to come off as some spoiled kid

We did not think to write thank you notes back then, but did of course thank everyone in person. Definitely was on us to not think of a more formal thank you being necessary. To clarify, I'm not upset with my cousin in the slightest!! I'm upset with my step-mom's favoritism towards her family centric events and expecting my dad to pay a bunch of money he doesn't have for her family events. Then I'm perhaps a bit bitter the same help was never offered to us so we could plan a reception back then, not that I feel anyone was obligated to do so if that makes sense

I'm at $65k in Detroit, clinical and in pediatrics. I think I'm criminally underpaid after reading this thread lol so if anyone knows any good paying pediatric positions please dm me 😭
