death do us part.

What if I die and I am never reunited with my roots?

Land of equality? I think not.

This is what I wrote to a certain hospital in my area:

"Good Afternoon ***,

I spoke with you a couple of months ago about nursing positions at ---. As I recall, you informed me that many of the applicants you've received have interned or worked as PCTs at --- prior to my experience at the hospital and therefore would be considered before me as positions became available. I felt this was only fair and was a reasonable explanation.

Still, I have been in contact with recruiter ***, notifying her whenever I would apply for an open position, to ensure that once I was eligible for consideration that I would be considered. I have been consistent with follow-ups as well. I have thus far only been contacted for one interview. Recently, however, two of my peers from Pitt's accelerated nursing program have landed job offers at ---. While I realize you cannot expound on the details of another individual within ---, you should know that my own conversations with these individuals has indicated that they have no NA/PCT experience with --- (while I have a year and seven months of said experience) nor have they interned with --- (while I have, not to mention during the most intense portion of the same accelerated nursing program they attended).

At this point, it appears that your initial explanation no longer applies to the selections being made at ---. I maintain that I am a strong candidate for any nursing position in the hospital and would even go so far as to say that I am a stronger candidate than at least two of the hires of which I am aware. For your information, those hires (my peers who received the offers) concur with that assertion.

Having said all of this, I am growing increasingly concerned over the fact that I was not at least contacted to interview for the same postings that resulted in offers of employment for the individuals above. I would appreciate your explanation as to why I have been contacted for only one interview at --- despite having applied to at least fifteen to twenty positions since graduating. Please include specific reasons as supported by citations of my resume, cover letters, or any other materials I've submitted for consideration."

The response was BS.

Thank god I'm moving to State College or else this would be war. Glad to see the hospital of my dreams has shown itself to be the most unjust. Maybe I should just change my name to something more American?

my life is nothing compared to what your life used to be. can i cry for you?
