    "I've lived here all my life"

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Emergent replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Nursing

    I highly doubt that your name is holding you back. It's probably your age. Employers are less likely to want to invest in training someone who might be retiring soon. That's just the reality of the...
