   That's just it!! I asked how long training was and he said depends how fast I pick up on things. Then he said I would be in the OR with him as the Circulating Nurse, and I'm definitely scared of that task alone! He said they would have a part time, b...

   Well I need medical insurance in general, and paying for a plan without benefits tends to be costly. And they told me up front they need someone who will commit and not take time off since they're so busy. I would be the only RN working in the facil...
