Assignment at TMC in Fort Defiance, AZ

Specialties Travel

Published

I am considering an offer for a 13 week travel position at the IHS facility in Fort Defiance, AZ. Has anyone worked at this facility? Pros and cons?

How I can work full time in one unit and part time I'm another one?

You sleep around 56 hours a week,right? That leaves 112 to work. Less another 36 for your full time gig still leaves 76 hours to divvy up between a part time job and Netflix.

I work 40 hours a week on my home unit 0630 to 1500. Then at least 20 hours on the second unit usually split by 1900 to 2300 and one full shift 1900 to 0330. The great thing about here is that my commute time is 5 min walking. Believe me if you really want to do something you find a way. I may be a workaholic also.
