where are you from and how long in school nursing ?

well, i'm a wannabe a school nurse again.

i applied for a position, but didn't get asked to interview, as i stupidly wrote that my last job as a school nurse was 40 years ago! oh well, if at first you don't succeed.......

i've been told that you should do "occasional" substitute school nurse work, as that gets your foot in the door. do you out there have any advice for me (please don't say "retire" - i don't know what i'd do if i did).:specs:
