I ordered stamps today.
What, no Kelpies?!
The collection is "Military Working Dogs." Apparently we still need civilian canines to tend sheep.

Well, there is that...
Just something to keep in mind while considering the opportunity. The other place could be as bad. (My innate negativity once again.)
But I know you would feel more loyalty to your patients than your employer. With everyone else leaving, who is left to adequately administer to the incoming patients?
Tough decision.
I tend to wait too long to leave a job and then it gets to the point where I just have to leave. It's like I wake up one morning and I think: Today's the day. And I resign without another job lined up.
I know the feeling. I did that twice, and after a break I regretted both times.
I don't know that would be your feeling, but having another job lined up first just might be a good idea. Although in this environment I doubt you'd be out of work for long, unless you wanted to be.
You seem to already be sort of in the frame of mind that you "can't take it anymore". I'd say to take some time off and see how you feel, but you've done that before. It's great while you're off, but the first day back you're back in that black abyss again.
Is there a way to find out what the conditions are in the place you're considering? Are you in contact with any of your former colleagues to find out if they're happier in their new jobs? I mean, there's no sense jumping out of the frying pan into the fire.
I'm trying to get more information so I can make a more rational decision. I could take all emotion out of the equation and make the move based solely on better commute, pay and benefits.
I'm in no hurry right now. But maybe I should be...

Things never seem as bad when you know you have an alternative.

This is true!
Alternative... or escape route?

I watched the moon last night. Pretty cool....
New car for geezerette. New job for bee? Sounds good to me but I'm not you.🤔 You would be closer to home and that would be a good thing. I think I would think on it. Sounds good to me though....
I am watching Silver linings playbook.. kind of in and out of it.
Brisk taking care of DH because he caught the flu.
Nothing new here so I'm taking it easy. Just laundry and dishes already done.🙂
Hope my new glasses come in soon....
Brisk out for now...
Take it easy everybody...Brisk out for now....
@viva923 got a new car too!🚗
Yuck, sorry to hear DH has the flu. That can be nasty. He's lucky to have you to take care of him.❤️
Better keep those new glasses away from Marigold when you get them.😉
