    cassilee30 replied to keludtke's topic in General Nursing

    cassilee30 replied to bjs54321's topic in Diabetes, Endocrine Nursing

  9. Nursing Unions-what is the good,bad, ugly?

    cassilee30 replied to johnson0424's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. Making $90K with a ton of overtime (i.e. in Texas) and making $90K as your base salary (in Cali) is not the same thing. It's obvious that California RN's do make more than Texas RN's because...

  10. Nursing Unions-what is the good,bad, ugly?

    cassilee30 replied to johnson0424's topic in General Nursing

  14. Did anyone here NOT get the HepB shot series?

    cassilee30 replied to marilynmom's topic in General Nursing

    I did not receive the series, as I am very uncomfortable about the ingredients in vaccines. I personally feel that they are responsible for other illness in our society. However, I'm one of those...

    cassilee30 replied to austin heart's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry you're going through a hard time. If it were me, just going by MY gut when reading your post, I'd say you need to take care of yourself first. Nursing is such a giving career and you sound...
