    Forgive me if i am late with this but I saw the article and it excited me. I also did a search on here and didnt see anything so I decided to post the article link. It gives me real hope as a future...

  2. What is the work situation like in Florida at this time?

    Conqueror+ replied to suzanne4's topic in Florida Nursing

    I think that I will buy some new nike's for my neighbors kids. MY kids don't have ANY shoes at all right now but what the heck ? I have the money to do it. Makes sense right

  3. How is it with the jobs in Tampa bay?

    Conqueror+ replied to Qka's topic in Florida Nursing

    I think that the situation is being blown out of proportion a little. I have had nurse internship offers in the St Pete Clearwater area which is right next door. Apply, follow up, and have a POSITIVE...

  4. Are there any positions for travel LPN's anymore?

    Conqueror+ replied to swater's topic in Travel

  6. Take provided or Find your own housing?

    Conqueror+ replied to Soonstudent's topic in Travel

    We get our own esp with all of the canceling going on. Its one thing to lose your job but quite another to be told you will also be homeless in 48 hours. Unecessary stress. Its also better to have a...

  7. what do you do with your license?

    Conqueror+ replied to MistyDawnRN06's topic in Travel

    I keep them active. Its cheaper to pay 50 bux every two years than having to do an endorsement again. We just try to travel in the staes we're licensed

  8. Group One background checks in Texas

    Conqueror+ replied to edgreen's topic in Texas Nursing

    Boy this whole story sucks in a major way. You can't get a job because of a renewal fee and Janine Jones can kill an unknown amount of babies in the NICU for funsies and leave out of the front door...

  11. Houston! "Oh you're an RN, nurses make great money"- Seriously....

    Conqueror+ replied to taapple's topic in Texas Nursing

    Every agency that I have ever dealt with (a whole lot) wanted one year of experience in the area that they would send you to. Like the other poster said, your only other option is to work for them as...

  12. Texas nurses are unionized

    Conqueror+ replied to Conqueror+'s topic in Texas Nursing

    I recently had a situation that demonstrates my love of unions in nursing. HR was "looking" for money in the budget and decided to cut the OT for anything over 8 hours in a day rule. AFTER we had...

  13. Need Advice with uncomfortable situation...

    Conqueror+ replied to travelgirl416's topic in Travel

    I had to leave an assignment early and after explaining all to my recruiter they did NOT penalize me financially and even gave me my 500 bux in travel money in my last paycheck. You never know until...

  14. Texas nurses are unionized

    Conqueror+ replied to Conqueror+'s topic in Texas Nursing

  17. Texas nurses are unionized

    Conqueror+ replied to Conqueror+'s topic in Texas Nursing

    HUH? Why do you keep responding in riddles and semi statements? Just say what you mean one way or another. Everybody's opinion is valuable if they at least bother to give

  18. Texas nurses are unionized

    Conqueror+ replied to Conqueror+'s topic in Texas Nursing

    I think the fact that hospital owners and administrators fight so strongly against their nurses being unionized should speak very loudly. If they will fire a nurse for mentioning the word 1 time too...

  22. How far do you drive?

    Conqueror+ replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing

    Furthest for me was 1.5 hours away on a double double program. They had nurses quarters so only one trip out on Friday and one back on Monday. It was also DH and me and paid $$$ so it was worth

  23. What is the biggest piece of advice you have for nursing students?

    Conqueror+ replied to ton343's topic in General Nursing

    Well this is graduation day advice but Ill give it to you now. "You can ALWAYS get a new nursing job but NEVER a new nursing license". Always keep that in mind when making decisions and following...

  25. Texas nurses are unionized

    Conqueror+ replied to Conqueror+'s topic in Texas Nursing

    Having worked in both environments, you feel less afraid to speak up for patients and yourself because they can't just fire you without cause like they can in non union buildings. Even if they try you...
