I worked weekend doubles for the first 2 years of my career as an LVN, and I loved having the 5 days off in a row. Having all the time off is definitely worth it.

I now work 5 days per week, 8 hour days, and it feels like a rude awakening.

Thanks for all the help! I think ill just fill the app out and include a resume with it...i guess it wouldnt hurt.
