New Job!



Recommended Posts

Well.....just had my administrator sign my extended 1 year leave of absence so I can embark on a new adventure! I will be working for Hynix Semiconductor Manufacturing. I've worked in an office sitting on my butt waaaaaaayyy too long. Now I will be suiting up in a clean suit (they call it a bunny suit....but it looks like a space suit). I will be working in the manufacturing of Dynamic Random Access Memory or DRAM. Anyway, it's a total change of pace for me and I'm very excited. Will start April 25th for a week orientation and then will find out my shift. They work 12 hour shifts, 3 days on-4 days off, then the next week, 4 days on-3 days off.

Anyway, just wanted to share. This whole year has been one of great changes for me and I praise God!

I am very thankful for the support and friendship I receive here at LBT. Thanks guys and gals!

congrats Darcey! So, what part of the process will you be working on? creating the silcone wafer, assembling the entire chip? And does your facility make other types of memory? (trying to tone down the geek-speak...) I want details! (Maybe PM me so we don't put everybody else to sleep?)

Cheers!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
