   saskrn replied to saskrn's topic in Travel

   Thank you for your reply! I'm sorry if this is late, I didn't realize that there were any responses. We traveled for years in the past, but always had a tax home. Your info helps a lot! We spoke with one recruiter who was great, and straight-...

   Hello everyone! I'm hoping for a bit of help! We were thinking of starting to travel nurse again, and we've been calling one or two companies for info, and to see how things are done now. My husband has been trying to find out what hourly ra...

3. Sexual harrassment or just an old creep?

   saskrn replied to CBlover's topic in General Nursing

   IMO, I'd follow the chain of command with this situation, for your own protection and job security. You never know how people might react when confronted with a sensitive issue like this, plus there's the possibility of a he said/she said situation.

5. Opposite Sex Coworker Social Boundaries

   saskrn replied to cyc0sys's topic in General Nursing

   My husband and I are both RN's, so I'm familiar with how his coworkers are mostly female. Taking everything into account, this is a marriage issue. I'm not sure if the above quote means you have no intention of catering to your wife's concerns. If ...

7. Report or not when administrators have favorites

   saskrn replied to NeuroICU_RN's topic in Relations

   IMHO, this isn't going to go well for you, BUT, I couldn't live with myself if I didn't report it. There is a difference between a bad report, and no report, and you essentially got no report. I've been a nurse for a long time in various units, and ...

   saskrn replied to fulitarn's topic in General Nursing

   My husband is an RN, and he's been on the receiving end of MANY female RN's giving him backrubs, etc, and it makes him extremely uncomfortable. This doesn't only happen to women. He now makes it widely known that he doesn't want to be touched by any...

   My husband has been an RN for 22 years, has worked almost every specialty in the hospital (right now he only works critical care units, PACU and the ED), and he's been nagged to be a charge for years. He HATES charge. He prefers to take care of his...

    saskrn replied to tennesseeRN67's topic in General Nursing

    Congratulations! Was it difficult to find a job? How did you write your resume and get the attention of the hiring manager, if you don't mind me asking? I have a friend in a similar position who wants to return to work.
