At our staff meeting at work today my boss explained that there is a new position starting in my clinic, a customer service manager. The description of the new job sounds right up my ally, organization, control over basically all the clinic and getting to spend time with patients. So I came home and made a proposal to give to my boss, this is what I think the job should look like and this is why I think I would be good at it. There are a couple downsides to the job, one I will be giving up my freedom of being able to do a different job everyday of the week, two I will basically be throwing away the training I did for the OR, and three I am kind of scared my co-workers won't like me so much if I become someone who tells them what to do. But come to think of it I tell them what to do now and they don't hate me... I just don't have any authority now. Good parts of the job hopefully include a raise, me being able to have more control over my work environment and being able to set goals and achieve them.
I am a little torn about applying though, I think it is because I applied to another position in my clinic when i was first working there and the application process was long and tedious. Actually everything that involves head office is long and tedious, but I think that is true for all work places.
So tomorrow I will send this to my boss and ask her to meet with me after work. I want to say this is what I want to position to be and this is how much money I want you to pay me. I know I can do the job well I just have to convince her of that. I don't think I will take the job without the raise, too much stress involved for no extra money. As much as I don't want to seem greedy I have a car payment and I want to be paid more for what I do.
