  10. There is bad management at every hospital, and this is a fact that I don't contend but unions aren't the answer. I cannot fathom having to pay dues in order to have employment nor would I EVER strike...
  11. My postings of information from anti union sources is no different than the pro unionists posting from their sources. It's amazing how when the anti union camp posts something its zealotry and when...

    Absolutely!
  19. What's in a Contract?

  20. NP Salary vs. RN salary

    This thread is very interesting to me as I am a NP who is hospital based and works 3-12's/week on dayshift. I, for one, would never go to working M-F. It has absolutely no appeal to it. I went to NP...
