   Codeda replied to Zalan's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

3. moving to las vegas from seattle!!!

   Codeda replied to ngindagirl's topic in Nevada Nursing

   A week is hardly enough time to get freaked out. Just give it a little bit of time and if you haven't heard anything call them. That's how most people I know got their jobs. " bothering" them a little...

4. How much do CNA's make in the Orlando area?

   Codeda replied to intehflames's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   Codeda replied to Ling07's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

   Wow does this ever sound like me. I was only at my job for 1 year but the last 3 months were awful. I was depressed, miserable, and would call in with these nonsense excuses. Good job. Good money....

11. agency work / the good bad and ugly of it

    Codeda replied to angelwings64's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    It's funny because I have heard from 3 CNAs this past week alone that they love doing agency work and would never work for one facility. Maybe it depends on each agency and each city? I don't have any...
