You could have stopped after your advice about the position. But your rude comment was assuming I wanted justification for taking the position when that just wasn't the case. Anyways. I've already...
Thank you all for your replies and insight. I will go and speak with the hiring manager on Monday about the situation. Let her know why I won't be taking the position after all. I wasn't trying to get...
I don't understand the rudeness in your replies. I am looking for advice as a new nurse and what I should do in terms of my career and goals. No we don't know where the next job will be even though he...
