the slooooow crack

Our manager we hired has officially turned down the job after an informal acceptance. I almost cried. I have never really been speechless before... I was speechless. I went to bat for this woman and basically convinced quite a few of my colleagues to go for her and she let me down. I probably feel more gutted than I should, but I was really looking forward to finishing up with my "extra duties". I'm sick of this.

Thankfully, I haven't been sued yet.

I brought a proposal today to our physicians at our board of directors. The proposed plan would have simplified patient's lives and improved patient care and leveraged our already available services from allied health professionals. Why was it rejected? Money. Even though the numbers show that the majority of physicians would not lose any money. Normally I wouldn't take something like this so personally but today I was totally pissed off. Well, live and learn, try to do something good and you get shot down. Maybe I should just stop trying.
