I will be graduating in August with my FNP from the Medical University of South Carolina. I have worked on a digestive disease floor since graduating in December 2007 with my BSN. Previously I worked for Starbucks and another small coffee shop and can make killer foam. I can also still draw from memory the entire metabolic cycle of the human body. I write legibly, bathe daily, and enjoy NPR. I look both ways before I cross the street, don't speed, and always use my turn signal. I leave notes and am good a wrapping presents. I make a mean chili and an even better guacamole. I am a Texan which means I am loyal and friendly to a fault. I care. I try. I cry at commercials often. I respect and value my parents and will drop everything to be at their side. My son is the single greatest thing that ever happened to me. He taught me selflessness and the value of breastfeeding and sleep. I would take a bullet for my dog and shoot my cats. I have tattoos but wear at least 4 shirts/camisoles at any one time. I despise laziness but wish secretly to take a 4-hour nap. I worry because I feel. I'm bipolar and can't save the world. I love and respect veterans and wish my generation had modesty and respect. I will make a loyal employee if you can get past my tattoos. I just want to help and to learn.
In return Dream Job, I ask this of you:
- Flexibility in hours and understanding that nothing means more to me than family
- Opportunity to educate at-risk youth
- Opportunity to educate pregnant women about breastfeeding
- Opportunity to medically manage veterans and grouchy grandmas on occasions
- Enough money to pay my bills, start my nest egg, contribute to Conor's 529, and buy vinyl
- Opportunity to stitch, lance, or biopsy someone on occasion
- The ability to wear a dress shirt open a button, to throw out my turtlenecks and to say bye to my white coat
- A working coffee maker or a Starbucks within walking distance
- Health insurance
- The ability prove myself useful and often humorous

It will happen. All of the things you say you'd do for everyone else, I'd do for you. And you are the best thing that's ever happened to me, because without you I would not have conor.
Lowie- you deserve all of this and more. You ARE a great nurse, and have knowledge and skills that surpass most-- on top of that, you look past the science and are able to see the patient as a PERSON.
I want this dream job for you too!
