   Ang_RN replied to violet_violet's topic in General Nursing

   Of course I need to make decent money. But I want to be happy and confident with my job. I took $2.00 less an hour, a 40 minute longer drive.. and having to pay my own benefits to get the job in the specialty I wanted. So.. I guess what I make is de...

10. I may be a job hopper,what shall I do....

    Ang_RN replied to kasendamiles86's topic in New Nurse

    Yikes! I understand your dilemma. I really don't know what to say. Personally I would stick with job #3 for a bit longer because of the shortage of jobs out there. But that is your own choice. On a resume, I don't think I would mention #1 and #2, b...

    Ang_RN replied to pharmgirl's topic in New Nurse

    Oh wow.. I would have been miffed too. I guess they think because they are in paramedic school that they are just there for the fun stuff. Where was the instructor? Wow.. I guess you would be the bad person if you decided that they couldn't help yo...
