I'm jealous of the commute some of you guys have! My case is 52 miles away from my home. The commute is at least 55 minutes, that's during the weekends when there is absolutely no traffic. During the...
Not everyone is bitter, I assure you. I've never gotten anything more than a $20 gift card to Walmart, but I don't mind. I don't really expect anything during any holidays so whatever is given is...
Oh I'm sorry. I thought you were the nurse on the floor and they were working with you! I thought maybe it was something new that was being taught in nursing school or something. Wow, when you ask,...

I'm not sure. I'm in the RN program right now, and it is difficult to get in. A little harder, I believe, now than it was. I met someone who went through teh LVN program at El Centro and said that it...
