   Marty McFly replied to aparsons's topic in California

   I live in Sacramento and know nurses that work for the various hospital systems in the area. I can't really add much but just echo everyone else's sentiments. The job market here is extremely competitive. The Folsom area is probably the most expensiv...

   I guess I chose the wrong forum! Could someone move this to the proper one?
