For the foreseeable future, it will be a floater position. After I test out & am certified on the procedure(s), I'll be back to full time on the A-Shift Beamer schedule, but will move to the medical lab anytime she is out and there is work to do there.
There is an increase in pay. That will off-set losing the night shift differential. 👍
However, there is a small chance, if the demand should increase dramatically, that they might consider starting up a night shift for production of that product. Since it currently only runs Mon-Thurs, I think they'd consider adding days on either a Thurs-Sun or a Fri-Mon instead.?
For now, it's all up in the air. I have to learn it - and pass testing first.
Hoping it works out for your benefit.

The honor of being chosen is good, but a raise is icing on top!
:yesss:

How nice to be appreciated and valued for your work. I was thinking back to your old job that sucked the life out of you and kept you on poverty wages. You have come a very long way and earned every step of the way. Congratulations on this new training and part time position. You will rock this with your work ethic and desire to not just be ok at what you do, but the BEST at what you do.

Well, you can't ask for anything better than that. 🤣
I could have asked that he not fix everything with duct tape. When he discovered colored and patterned duct tape, he was over the moon. When he beat me to a fix it job with brightly colored duct tape, I was forced to smile and admire his handiwork when I really wanted to scream and pull my hair out. I sure miss him.

My Bob could build ANYTHING.... but if there was in any way possible to upsize it to accommodate 4x4's & 2x6's he was THRILLED.
Building stalls - perfect.
Building a little table for the TV.... total overkill! 🤣

They can definitely do things to drive us crazy, but endear themselves to us at the same time.
I can't even begin to fathom how much. :hugs

Sounds like my Dale, he can build anything and it's always built to last. 💗

Congratulations on being chosen for such a specialized backup position. I'm sure it was well earned.

Tonight's back door porchlight pal.
Tiny little thing could have comfortably sat on my thumb nail.
