JW if any of you in TPAPN have been tested on Saturday before. I am 2 hour drive to testing site, and they are only open from 8-10 on Saturdays and closed on Sunday. My advocate said they wont pick you on Sunday unless you work weekends at hospital where they may choose to if mgr asks them to. My dilema is the possible "4 hr" roud trip drive. I drive in all the weekdays, but not Sat or Sun. I of course will make the trip if picked, just takes half my day off after a tough week of long drives and long workdays!

I've never been picked on a weekend and I've been in TPAPN since September 2011.
