  14. Where to get scrubs?

    http://www.allheart.com currently has a coupon for $10 off of $25. The code is: AH2 and it expires 01/20/06. I just bought a pair of allheart brand scrub pants as they come in tall, to see if I like...

  17. Work and Go To School?? Help!

  21. 12 hr. shifts vs. 8 hr. shifts.

    There is one hospital around here that's offering 7 days on with 7 off. But I'm not sure if that's 12 hour shifts though. I think that would be absolutely draining.>> We have a facility here...
  22. Ordering scrubs online

    I don't like that allheart has no customer service number so I stopped using them. I do like jacklmarcus and tafford. Tafford (http://www.tafford.com) has the nice tall inseams available and their...
  23. 12 hr. shifts vs. 8 hr. shifts.

    Personally I like 2 12's together, then a break. If I do end up working an 8hr shift, it seems like a treat, like I'm getting to go home "early"....love it!>> Same here. I work Baylor weekends...
