  10. I start a week from tommorrow. Seriously, the rumors around my whole city is that the teachers are just plain mean to say the least. I'm pretty scared and stressed out. Not to mention I'm covered in ink (I will be wearing a long sleeve white turtlene...

  12. Anxiety

    See your doctor. My family doctor prescribed me Xanax and it works great for me.
  13. What type of drug tests do CNAs get?

    It differs by employer... You wouldn't fail either if you only second hand smoked.
  14. My cousin in law is also a new grad lvn by sf.. She ended up taking a job in Sacramento at a correctional facility. Maybe check into correctional facilities? Also have you tried long term care centers? I know where I live (reno) they are always hirin...
