  1. getting pregnant and finding a job

    I don't know how difficult it will be to get a job, but just know that for most (or all, not sure) employers, you have to work for a year in order to have your job protected under the Family Medical Leave Act. I live in the Bay Area too and it wasn'...
  2. Southern Oregon pay rates?

    Hi! My future in-laws are moving to the Grants Pass area and are trying to entice us to move with the prospect of free rent and our own house on their property (pretty nice, eh?). The only problem I can see is the pay cut I would recieve from moving...
  3. question about the patch

    Actually, according to my doc, the high weight limit for the patch is 198 lbs, as it also says in the information packet. She doesn't recommend being over 190 or so, but it's okay according to her, as long as you're not over the limit. The OP was a...

    Your period will continue as usual, as has been my experience with the patch. --icesk8ie
  5. Sam Merritt vs. Univ. San Fran ELMSN?

    I don't know if you've considered it, but UCSF Master's Entry Program is very good. Their nursing school is #1 in the nation, I believe.
  6. El Camino College - Torrance, CA

    I graduated from LBCC last May. If you want any info on them, PM me. --icesk8ie
  7. oakland, california

    Oakland isn't so bad, if you live in the right area. I live in Berkeley, which is just north of Oakland, and I love it, but there are bad parts too. I just moved up here in July of this year and I love it. I don't know how Children's is, although ...

  9. Corrosive coworker - advice please!

    I thank you both for your advice. It is very difficult to be upfront with her as she is very set in her ways and doesn't listen to anyone. I also want to clarify that I am not leaving my job because of her, I'm planning on leaving because I don't w...
  10. I am a new grad and have worked at my facility for approximately 6 months now. One of my coworkers I feel is just gunning for me to do something wrong. She is constantly telling me things that I "should" have done, meanwhile offering no constructiv...
  11. Am I normal?

    I honestly think this is perfectly normal. I always felt lightheaded everytime I saw a new invasive procedure, but the second time I was fine. I never was able to dissect animals, I always let my lab partner do the cutting. You will be fine, espec...
  12. Oakland Kaiser or Alta Bates in Berkeley, Ca?

    Moondancer, Just PM'ed you a reply. --icesk8ie
  13. Oakland Kaiser or Alta Bates in Berkeley, Ca?

    I've never worked at either, but when I was applying for jobs, I applied at Alta Bates. I was disgusted at how I was treated by the recruiter. She gave me the run-around, wouldn't answer certain questions, and was all-around rude (especially when s...
  14. I told myself not to post this, BUT...

    I want to wish you good luck too. You're lucky you get to find out so soon. I took it on June 11th and don't get to find out for a while since the BRN doesn't have my transcripts and CA doesn't participate in quick results. I am jealous . Sending...
  15. Went on hospital tour...but....

    Rainbows, I don't know how it's going to work since I don't start for another month. I'm kind of wary about it, but I hope it will work. I like nights, but flip-flopping kinda sucks... --icesk8ie
