  1. Is this a violation of HIPPA?

    I don't believe you are disclosing all the information. They wanted labs. You said you had a dentist appointment, which was actually your friends appointment. It automatically makes me think they really needed labs and you really did not w...
  2. How much do you make 2016

    I got a job offer the other day for $13 an hour. The lady actually said she didn't think I'd interview for the job, but that's all she can pay. She said its basically a triage job - giving some shots at a college. An easy peezy job. I can't afford...
  3. Does Anyone Know About Federal Re-Hire policies?

    Thanks. Yes that facility has a union. Perhaps they can help. I'm trying not to dwell on it, but it sometimes feels like I gave up my dream job and will never have an opportunity again like that one. Thanks again for the advice.
  4. I am employed in the private sector. I was employed in a Federal job, GS7. I quit that position (worked out a notice) because I was offered a VA position. This was a different Federal agency than I had been working for before. Anyway, I went throu...
  5. Who knew this was so LONELY????

    I feel your pain. I felt the same way when I was traveling. I used to cry whenever any sad song played in the mall, or on the radio. Things I liked to do with my family, I couldn't enjoy without them. While I made twice the money traveling - th...
  6. Who knew this was so LONELY????

    I'm staying at a motel that my agency pays for, and it has a gym. As far as other nurses, I did meet one and we got a long great, but her contract ended and she went home. I am just biding my time until my contract ends and next time I hope to be s...

    I'm not turned off on travel nursing, though. I plan on doing it again because local stuff just isn't working for me anymore.

    Neighborhood Scout is a website that rates crimes per capita and they have a scoring system that rates safety levels from 1-100. 100 is the safest. The area I am working in rates a 1. I removed the town name for personal reasons. But here is the d...
  11. Who knew this was so LONELY????

    I take drives, in fact - have to commute 40 miles each way to my assignment. But on my days off, I drive - I go to restaurants - I go walk around in the shopping malls and outlet malls - work out at a gym everyday, etc. I don't watch TV at home at ...
  12. Best paying travel agency covering housing in 2016?

    Nope - my perspective is correct. I've lived in large cities (Atlanta? Las Vegas? ) before and have had my car stolen, had my apartment robbed, etc. Not afraid of being raped. I am very self reliant. Having said that - my fear is not being a ...
  13. Who knew this was so LONELY????

    This is a really old thread, but it's my life right now. I am married to a very supportive person and my kids are grown - in college. Traveling pay is twice what I make at home, meaning I can work less in a year and still maintain our kids tuition,...
  14. Best paying travel agency covering housing in 2016?

    To Sunshine: I am halfway through a traveling contract in New Mexico. I started out in Albuquerque and ended up in Santa Fe. You have to be very careful in this state. Albuquerque had a lot of crime, car thefts, etc. Santa Fe & small towns a...
