  11. Do you see a problem with this?

    I think that you should tell management that you want double time all the time if your'e gonna float. Oh, and a bonus,
  12. Exactly, why be an employee of hospital? Worst idea ever, if you ask me. Unions are no match for the free market. eg. I come to hospital x, i say, "you need nurses." hospital: yes, lots! Me: Ok i've...
