    yourstrulyjmc replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The awful truth is that most women are SO catty. Does it REALLY matter how a new nurse LOOKS as long as they're a great nurse and willing to help/learn? Are you as threatened by the new nurses who...

    yourstrulyjmc replied to yourstrulyjmc's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Thanks jujubee. It's another phone interview, because the hospital is 4 hours away... so hopefully it is just a "getting to know you" type of interview. Honestly, I can't imagine what more they could...
