My new job doesn't wear scrubs! :(

Discussion

I started a new job at a primary care clinic with about 20 locations that is more focused on preventative care. I had to make a change due to it being weekday 8-5 hours and I need to do daycare drop off and pick up. I emailed about the dress code because I only have navy scrubs and I wanted to see if that was fine and they responded that all employees are BUSINESS CASUAL!!! I hate this so much. There shouldn't be too many fluids, but they did specifically mention I'd be doing blood draws.

I want scrubs! I already had a hard time accepting because I loved my OR ambulatory surgery center job, but I moved and theyre all 10 hour shifts here and I'd have to pay for 5 days of daycare since my day off would change and id have to find an in home daycare which we had terrible luck with before.

Im just so sad and its another thing about this job that makes me think of what I've had to give up.
