    Ha we choose to heal or be victims. The people who survived the nazi death camps mostly made the choice of going on with life. I make no comparison as the implications are not close. However I’m...

    Why hasn’t pay increased? Hazard pay, etc.?

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to gcupid's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Class Action Lawsuit

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to SpankedInPittsburgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    The extended end date has me at wits end but it goes beyond that. I simply don’t think these poop shows would stand up to protracted scrutiny in open court. I feel many were coerced into these...

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to RevelationDark's topic in Nurses Recovery
