I have an interview with a company 80 miles from where I live. It is a monday thru friday job, no weekends or holidays. I currently work at a basic care facility 32 hours a week just about every holiday and every other weekend. I worked here before I graduated with my RN and they continue to pay me my LPN wage with no mention of increasing the pay.
I have been unable to get an RN job here in town and have had to look elsewhere. I am a little hesitant about the commute because of the weather during the winter. I know I would like this job and all it entails, but again the commute is quite a distance.
So how far do you travel for work or would be willing to travel for a job?
I wouldn't be able to drive that kind of commute 5 days a week. I currently drive about 22 miles one way, mostly freeway and the drive there is fine but on the way home it's annoying! It takes me 25 minutes to get there and 30 minutes to get home. I think your proposed commute is going to put a lot of wear and tear on your vehicle, not to mention the gas you'll be buying.

No, you can't.
