i read all the posts here about new grads, and some older nurses (like about my age) not being able to find jobs. people say they're desparate for jobs, they'll take anything to put food on the table.
and then i see the posts from folks who graduated six months ago and already changing jobs or wanting to change jobs because their manager isn't nice to them, they don't like their preceptor, "er just isn't for me" (truly, after six months, how can you know?), their commute is too difficult or they don't like the hours. if jobs are really that difficult to find, how come folks are looking to quit their jobs for what seem to be frivolous reasons?
are jobs so plentiful in some areas that people can afford to job hop? are they so scarce in other areas that people can't get hired no matter what? wouldn't it be nice if we could spread the wealth around a bit?
