Every 2 weeks. :)

Two weeks of orientation, 40 hours each.

Good luck everyone! 20 more spots open for the 4th batch! :)

We have an exam next week?

Is it just me or is anybody else having a hard time going to sleep? Lol See you February 7 starters tomorrow! :)

IV test is on day 4 and pharmacology is on day 5. Not looking forward to the drive on Monday morning and taking those tests, but very excited to start! :)

I couldn't agree more. Still better than $8 per hour. Lol

Awww man! That makes me sad. I thought it was $33.50 plus overtime. Oh well, better than nothing. So I did the math. It makes sense. So pretty much, here's how it goes. Pay for first 8 hours of the 12-hour shift: 28.71 x 8 = $229.68 Pay for Last 4 hours of the 12-hour shift (time and a half): (28.71 x 1.5) x 4 = $172.26 So for the whole 12 hours, we get: 229.68 + 172.26 = $401.94 To get the average rate for the whole shift: 401.94/12 = $33.495 or $33.50 Thus, they told us it's $33.50 per hour. Bummer! Still not bad though. :)

$30 makes more sense. That's how much I paid for parking when I had my preceptorship there last spring. I'm going for my physical on the 1st. Does that mean I have to go to quest diagnostics? Or do I just go to cedars?

I only used an unoffiial transcript for my portfolio too.

NurseVN, who told you that you need a copy of your official transcript? I wonder if we all need one because I wasn't told about it and I don't have a copy handy.

I was told to just bring two forms of identification. I later got an email telling me to also bring my licenses/certifications and a direct deposit slip or two voided checks if I want direct deposit. Nobody mentioned anything about a transcript.

Yey! Congrats VanessaRN! We weren't meant to be USC CTICU coworkers. We're meant to be cedars coworkers! :) See you in two weeks!

I hope so too. I got a call at 9!

Thanks fattymax2! Hang in there everyone! :) yea, I know. Easier said than done. Lol
