  2. Either Give Me A Lunch Break Or Pay Me!!

    Call the state and report them. What they are doing is illegal. They know it and are banking on all of you not calling them on it and taking action. Unfortunately this happens all too often. The state...

    You should be fighting mad. What they are doing is illegal. You are performing free services every day that you don't take a break or get paid. They are totally breaking the law and completely...

  6. easy street - where is it?

  10. Need Easy RN school Ny or Jersey

    I had to take the NLN to get into NS. Others take the NET or another standarized test before acceptance. I don't know of any community college where you wouldn't need a test like this one. They don't...
  11. Need Easy RN school Ny or Jersey

    Truth is you won't find an easy nursing school. It doesn't exist. NS is tough and should be. That doesn't mean you can't do it but you will need to spend almost all free time studying while in school....
