Breaking a contract..resign or be dismissed?

I was hired 5 months ago at a hospital, and I received $13,320($8,000 net). Unfortunately, I signed a 2yr contract. I now hate my job, dislike the particular patient population(druggies), and I’m receiving a 2nd disciplinary action today, and because of the disciplinary action, I cannot transfer to another ward, floor etc…TRAPPED!

I’d like to resign but cannot pay back the $13,320 plus interest. Should I let them dismiss me? Has anyone else out here broken their contract, how did they repay, etc…please help with some advice!

Desperate,
Toby

Area 51

You’ve all heard of the Air Force’s ultra-high-security, super-secret base in Nevada, known simply as “Area 51?”

Well, late one afternoon, the Air Force folks out at Area 51 were very surprised to see a Cessna landing at their “secret” base. They immediately impounded the aircraft and hauled the pilot into an interrogation room.

The pilot’s story was that he took off from Las Vegas, got lost, and spotted the Base just as he was about to run out of fuel. The Air Force started a full FBI background check on the pilot and held him overnight during the investigation.

By the next day, they were finally convinced that the pilot really was lost and wasn’t a spy. They gassed up his airplane, gave him a terrifying “you-did-not-see-a-base” briefing, complete with threats of spending the rest of his life in prison, told him Las Vegas was that-a-way on such-and-such a heading, and sent him on his way.

The next day, to the total disbelief of the Air Force, the same Cessna showed up again. Once again, the MP’s surrounded the plane … only this time there were two people in the plane.

The same pilot jumped out and said, “Do anything you want to me, but my wife is in the plane and you have to tell her where I was last night!”
