Big work news for me. No I'm not retiring.

I’m glad you’re not losing your job. It’s unfortunate that some will lose their jobs, but hopefully they’ll land on their feet. The weekend shift incentive loss is a bummer.

I found out this morning that our full time x-ray tech, with whom my wife and I have become good friends over the past 3 years, is losing her job as a result of the closure. There are no open full time positions at any of the other urgent care locations. So she is updating her resume and applying for jobs. Some are within our hospital system but outside as well.

I'm sure the same will happen to some of the other staff. There probably aren't enough open spots to absorb everyone.

I'm glad I'm not losing my job, but I'm really upset for anyone who will.

Do you think it'll be hard for people in the medical field to find positions?

No. There are lots of jobs out there. We live in an area highly concentrated with healthcare. Several major hospital systems. Large outpatient groups with hundreds of offices, numerous urgent care chains, etc. But that doesn’t necessarily mean finding something as good as what you had, close to home, good hours, etc.
