  2. Cautionary Tale/ American Mobile /Medical Express Strikes Again

    It's not for everyone, but maybe if all us get RV's the hospitals will put in hook ups and let us park on site for free. No commute to work, all the travelers would know each other. You don't have to...
  3. Nurses create the demand! Quit accepting low paying contracts

    Or letter from the IRS happily informing you that you are being audited. NEVER ACCEPT a low wage for tax free money. It sounds too good and it is really bad. Something like a bait and switch in my...

  5. Housed in a hotel room??

    If you can work the extended stay into your contract I think it is a great way to travel. Pack up a couple suit cases and you are done. Don't have to worry about cleaning, it's done. There is usually...
  6. Have you and your friend put yourselves out there as a package deal? If you are not working with the same recruiter at the same time it will be very difficult to find a hospital for both of you at the...

    What ever you do, consult a tax professional before embarking on any "tax free" adventures. My opinion and not an endorsement to any specific tax

  10. Housing in San Francisco?

  11. RV's anyone???

    Two new things to post about. One good and one maybe not so good. I always like good first. Put a deposit on a 14 foot van body to place on the back of my truck. Am looking for the right person to do...
  12. RV's anyone???

    Argo, About the only thing that will fit into most toyhaulers is a motorcycle or two. I thought I was going to be able to fit a small car in my 12 foot garage but there is only one car that is 12 ft...
  13. Housed in a hotel room??

    I worked a job in Virginia staying at a Best Western in the early 90's. Worst housing ever. Had a microwave (mine) and a Campstove (mine) fridge came with the room (mini). Two years ago I was at a...

    So are you planning on living in the RV in the winter time in the Mountains? That will take some preparation and you will need to be sure you have a TRUE four season rig. Dual pane windows Extra seals...

  16. RV's anyone???

    I sort of already thought that, but wanted to be sure. I would be hard to decide what to bring for three people and still travel somewhat light. Depends on their requirements. I was looking hard at...
  17. RV's anyone???

    You probably won't be happy spending any time "camping" in the car trailer. Will probably find that campgrounds won't consider it a camper either and may prohibit your use as such. It may be...

    I worked in DC for three months in the early 90's made good money working nights and they had some sort of extra OT pay. Drove back and forth from Alexandria oposite the traffic most of the time. One...
  19. PLEASE SHARE YOUR 1st time traveling Exp...

    There are a lot less men in nursing and I won't say it's easier, just different. I don't worry about driving, parking or being able to lift and move my stuff. It does seem that some of the Male Doc's...
  20. For those experienced travel nurses out there???????

    The only thing I really didn't like about Travel Nursing was the packing and unpacking. Love everything else. If you are a "Great Nurse" you can be a great nurse anywhere. That's my opinion. I could...
  21. Local traveler 18 weeks pregnant

    It is illegal to discriminate based on pregnancy status. With a travel contract or an Agency job you are usually without long term insurance coverage and you will have no "sick time" or "PTO" time to...
