good news/bad news....good news 1st

I graduate in december so I had my first interview today...it went great. I was pretty much told that I got the job. good news right? yaaaay!!

bad news...

orientation starts in december....on probation for 6th months. whats that mean?? no days off!!

= can't book a honeymoon!!

the only thing i can think of is that my wedding is on my weekend off, so hopefully i'll be able to work my schedule out that i'll have a few days off after, then maybe we can go to the bahamas or something just to do something for a few days (like 3!) and then just go on a real honeymoon after probation.

i am so happy and so so so upset at the same time!!! my stomach is in knots!!!

as an RN...i am already an LPN, but now I finished (almost) my 4yr degree :)

i just realllllllly wanted to go on my honeymoon i am sooooo happy about the job though.....ugh i'm so torn right now!

That is great news about the job. I know it su*ks about the HM but I know lots of people who waited to take their HM. Wait it out a little bit, sometimes companies will let you borrow time and take vacation early for extreme circumstances -- like your wedding.

A career is forever you will always be able to take your honeymoon!

i know.....just *****.....we were looking forward to it soooo much....fh sounded totally supportive about it which is great....thats why i love him....but he was the one who wanted to surprise me and book everything, ya know?? i'm hoping i can work something out so we can at least get away for 3 days or so right after. i hope it works out like that at the least

It will work out! It has to...you've had great news...getting married to a great guy and you will have a great job. As other have said, you can always honeymoon later.

Congrats on the job interview going well!

CONGRATS on the job!

Don't be sad about taking a delayed honeymoon. A lot of people have to do that and having a new job is way more important. Your honeymoon will come in time and the longer you wait the more special it will be abd hey since you will have a new job maybe you can even upgrade!!! It isn't the end of the world, it will work out for the best!

I would ask them about that though... I know I'm actually going through the same thing where I'm interviewing for jobs and getting offers... and some companies told me that I wouldn't be able to take vacation or days off for the first 6 months, and I told them that I was getting married in August, and the people I was interviewing with said that it was not a problem and I would be able to work it out and take those days off, that my wedding and honeymoon was obviously important! I'm not sure if pharmacy is different, if they're more flexible, but it's worth it to ask. See if they will work with you! But congrats on the interview going well!

I agree, most companies if you let them know in advance will accomodate your wedding. My fiance just went through the same thing and he works for the govt. - they said that they understand and wuld give him the time off. I guess that it's different then just taking a leisure vacation.
