Andrea Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Excuse my boldness for asking a question unrelated to LC, but with close to 1200 members, maybe someone can help me Does anyone here themselves work for the American Cancer Society or know someone who does? If so, I am curious how you like it, is it rewarding (mentally, not financially) stress levels, etc, etc. I applied to be Special Events Manager for Relay for Life and have a phone interview for Fri, so just wanted some insight. I doubt I will get the job b/c I don't have the experience they want in non-profit, but I am giving it a shot. Please feel free to PM me or e-mail me at andreascheff@cox.net if you have any information. Thanks so much! PS--I gave notice for my job today. Two weeks notice was not enough, they asked for 30 days so I agreed to 30. What if I get something before, well I will worry about it then I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahhappy Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 I don't have any knowledge of Am Cancer Soc but I just wanted to say congrats on quitting your job. How exciting! Here's to moving on to a more fulfilling work life Amy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Daughter of Bill Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 Well, I am glad you took the step that you wanted to take. I have no knowledge of the American Cancer Society. (as far as employment goes) I wish you the VERY BEST in whatever you choose to do. I quit my job several years ago to stay home with my children. I made a pretty decent salary. Was it difficult to quit? yes. Was it harder without my income? yes. Do I regret it? Not for one minute. Like you, I felt I was needed somewhere besides where I was. I was able to raise my two precious daughters. (As opposed to sending them to daycare)For that I am very thankful. Good luck Andrea!

She is a breast cancer survivor I believe and the assisted her at the start. God Bless, MO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
