2. Do you have to include a recent job on new Application?

   rnwotwob1 replied to FSK123's topic in General Nursing

   not always the case. i clipped an article from the newspaper stating that anything under 6 months can be considered temp. The article was written by an employment specialist. they would know. why on earth would a person list it on the resume but not ...

4. Im miserable at my new job!!! HELP!

   rnwotwob1 replied to NoeIssa's topic in General Nursing

   it's a shame, but there are so many nurses who are so da** miserable. Don't let 'em get to you and push you around. I think people of that sort will try to pick on someone new or someone they think it a pushover or who can be pushed around easily. we...

5. Hospitals Hiring only Nurses with BSN Degree

   rnwotwob1 replied to nlhnurse1982's topic in General Nursing

   yes - it's true. there's one in st augustine. it's a shame they require one before. i would imagine most new grads are short of cash when they get their adn. i think many people were hoping for a paying job so they could afford bsn or further certif...

6. Do you have to include a recent job on new Application?

   rnwotwob1 replied to FSK123's topic in General Nursing

   no, you don't. consider it a temporary position - anything under 6 months. (it's a shame that had to be your first position/first experience in the medical field. look at it as a learning experience of the sort of place you don't want to be at)

7. Should the H1N1 Vaccine be mandatory for Healthcare Professionals?

   rnwotwob1 replied to Brian's topic in COVID

   look what happened in the '70's with the first swine flu vax. it was a big fiasco. the way the gov't is pushing this so quickly - makes a person wonder how much will be mucked up in the future. (Just google the last swine flu "epidemic" during the 70...

8. Career Advice Please

   rnwotwob1 replied to hah2010's topic in Florida

   there seems to be nothing for new grads in this part of florida just now. Seems to be more positions for CNA and HHA. (there's not a nursing shortage - there's plenty of new grads being rejected for positions daily - just look on this website) if i h...

10. Do you work at Florida Flagler Hospital Palm Coast?

    rnwotwob1 replied to jnmoore02's topic in Florida

    I did my clinical there. I had the chance to work with the nurses. They had a lot of rotten things to say about the place. Between their comments, patients comments and my own observations, it does not seem to be a very good place to be. (example: th...

11. Someone should warn people!!!

    rnwotwob1 replied to floridanursemom239's topic in Florida

    hey - RN, BSN. everyone is having the same crappy hassle. The license means a person is qualified (isn't that what the clinical hours were all about - hands-on hospital clinical hours). The facilities want everyone to have a year experience. I am beg...

    rnwotwob1 posted a topic in Florida

    Has anyone ever had any experience with this scenario? Please tell me your interview nightmares. Here's mine: A nurse manager at an area facility called me and set up an interview (she choose the time and day). I showed up early and ended up waiting ...

13. Thinking about moving to florida

    rnwotwob1 replied to bvalentine's topic in Florida

    oh boy! you should move here. you'd fit right in. the state loves ex-cons. and cons-on-the-run and fugitives (no, actually, it's the criminals that love the state!). don't you ever watch the national news? all the crooks and scumbags high-tail it to ...

14. Why Does Everyone Hate Florida So Much??

    rnwotwob1 replied to natkoz82's topic in Florida

    everyone doesn't hate florida. they only hate parts of it. i hate this area (daytona) but i love the river and beach and wildlife (frogs, lizards, alligators, bobcats, etc). The job situation is lousy in this area. (it was much better back home - bet...
