It will get better and if you get a lunch break that is a good thing. Most of the time nurses don't even get a pee break.

things are looking up in Ohio where I live lots of new grad interns getting hired here so I think it will be getting better everywhere, only so long before existing staff gets burned out with OT

:crying2:I agree 100% today the amount that college costs is ridiculous who has 80,000 to send their kids to college just llaying in their bank accounts? And then these poor kids come out and can't get a job.

:pI think after 5 years that you have to go take a refresher course.

Union hospitals sometimes can be very political nasty places to work. Often times I have found that the unions cover nurses who really need to be fired.
