1. Need advice on attire

   Seank posted a topic in Men

   I'm starting a new job as a trauma case manager with the Army and I was told to wear kackis, a "good" shirt, a lab coat, and comfortable shoes. I wear tennis shoes now as an ICU nurse, but have no idea what to get otherwise. They will have to be ve...

   I was thinking those letters wouldn't be out for another month so I hope my son gets one. Do you work in a DSH hospital? congratulations because you are one of the few who actually got the money. I'm sure you are so excited. It's wonderful.

7. Dependent AF spouse RN questions

   Seank replied to lauritasol's topic in Government

   Don't forget this is just for jobs where they have a critical shortage, like nurses. Well, the housing allowance makes sense if your spouse if already collecting one. I was assured that as a single person I would get a housing allowance and commiss...

8. Dependent AF spouse RN questions

   Seank replied to lauritasol's topic in Government

   I don't know it it's easier. It only means they can hire who they want without ranking, or preferences. They are still required to post the vacancy. Yes, DH's still get housing allowance, etc. but, if the same code holds, it's who you know. If you ...

    I'm interested in moving to Oregon, but right now I live in Scottsdale, AZ and have to worry about a lease and student loan payments. I'm working on the night shift and make around 30/hr but with the high rents here and my loans I don't have much le...

    Seank replied to Seank's topic in Arizona

    Would you feel comfortable giving me the name of your hospital; maybe I could call them and have them fax that letter to the HR, then maybe they wouldn't feel so scared about giving the information out.
