  6. Can turning down a job cost you a chance later?

  13. Factory worker one day ... nurse the next?

    You know, I used to think this way. I used to think that people who had absolutely no business pursuing a career in Nursing would be weeded out b/c they couldn't make it through the program or...

  21. "LPNs should be done away with altogether"

    I think this statement goes without saying. I think it's very logical to assume that in any field, a consumer would rather an experienced professional over a novice any day of the week. It takes time...
