Torn Between Two Positions (Economic Rarity)
I say do the interview and play the waiting game. Both jobs may end up wanting you part time! The pre employment checks can take a long time.

NCLEX 75 Questions?
Took the NCLEX on 9/27. It shut off at 75...I thought I was taking a break! Obviously when the screen said it was over and prompted me to answer the last customer service questions I know I was leaving. It took 2 days for the CA BON to post my number.

CA nurse that made 260K which prison did she work at.
I believe that lady was a supervisor over several prisons and had to travel a great deal and deal with many, many shortages at several prisons. She may have gotten 260,000 in one year, but I bet she never saw her family or took a vacation. The average supervior makes over 100.000/year according to the cdc website. My husband is a C/O in CA. Unless you have been in a level 4 prison, I would not judge. I toured it once and may never go back!!

Had Interview today for CTF/SVSP...now what?
Unethical? Was there a confidentiality agreement that had to be signed to interview. Asking what questions are asked during an interview does not guarantee that that question will be asked again and isn't that what headhunters and resume preparers due is get you prepared.

Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?
I am a chiropractor working on NP or PA, but in my BSN degree. For my chiro licence I had to take 4 board exam spread over 3 years. The first set of exams were 6 parts of patho phys. The second board, six exam, was more clinical disease/treatment related. The third was one test about more detailed clinical situations. The fourth test was two day long question answer and practical in front of an examiner. Very intense.

Are online ANP degrees destroying our credibility?
I'm in an online program where we still do our clinical rotations with supervision. The test taking is not as simple as it seems. We have a camera that watches us (kinda creapy) during the test and fingerprint scanner to verify our identity. I got a letter from the proctor company about potential cheating because my cat walked in my office and jumped on my desk. No books, no spouse finding answers, no cell phones, no calculators, etc. If I chose to have an actual person proctor me the school would have to approve them. My school denied proctors from one of my classmates because they went to the same church. With the changes in the economy and increased technology, online schools will become more accepted. The quality is there, national boards are still national boards.

Bring to a Recruiting station for 1st Visit
My Army recruiter was so nice, but the Air Force was not so happy. I went to the Los Angeles area to meet the AD requiter with all of my docs she requested. The reserves requiter was just as nice and helpful.

What is the secret to getting along with custody?
I certainly understand the duplicity of your problem. One of my friends who is an Optomitrist saw a guard slip and fracture his leg infront of a nurse. The nurse did nothing. The optomitrist was disgusted that she did not help the guard other than call 911. The guard was not in eminent danger and was off the yard. I had to explain to her that the nurse was actually there for the inmates and his fall was a worker's compensation issue. There is nothing that a nurse can do anyways for a fracture. The guard was stable just had a broke leg. My husband is a guard and we have many friends who are in medical staff, it is hard. The only thing that I can suggest is the problem is not how you treat the guards, but its how you treat the inmates. Good luck

What is the secret to getting along with custody?
Part of the problem is that the medical staff appears to be "inmate friendly" when the guards are trying to maintain order and not get hurt. The nurses are in a tough position because you must treat the inmate, while believing in the corrections system.
