One more step in the right direction...

Not this past week but the week before I was furious with my employers... FURIOUS!!! I was supposed to have been given health insurance in March but since they messed up it hadn't happened yet and it appeared it wouldn't be happening... I was not happy! I had been paying for it since March and they hadn't bothered to say anything until I asked why I hadn't received a card in the mail. If I weren't the responsible person I am (and hadn't spent 6 months last year being unemployed) I would have left at my break and never come back. So I called the insurance company myself and they basically said there was nothing they could do blah blah blah, so the fury continued. I had been looking and looking for other jobs to apply to... Something, anything else! There's nothing but crap out there folks! So I decided this was my sign to go to grad school and enrolled in a GRE prep course at the U. After hearing the GRE is changing, I looked into it and found out that it's half price if you take the revised version in the first two months so I jumped on that. I will be taking the GRE on August 26th and I think I have 4 programs I'll be applying to. I started the first prep class this past Saturday and got about half the score on the practice GRE that I'll need. I have a lot of studying to do!

By the way, they were able to work it out so I do have health insurance and they're going to back date the coverage to the first of March. I should be getting my card sometime this week and then I'll be scheduling an appointment with my Dr ASAP. After two years, I'm sure she's missed me ;)
