   Can someone close this thread? It is too late, I have no money. Lol, people seem to think you can just get to work with no money, no internet, no gas, etc. Pretty soon I won't have any water either...

   Oh and thanks for letting me know that Travel nursing will ruin my resume. Recruiters keep telling me all these things about nursing, but they aren't even nurses. So I knew I would find the answer...
