Can't say I have, but it sounds to me like you just bought a whole slew of SoCal folks the first round.

I didn't either, so I searched and found one in Santa Monica. If it's this one, it's potential for a good selection of beers on tap has accelerated some. I'm not a wine guy; I'm blue collared folk, my friend.

Well... Did 6 hours of continuing education while at work today. Prepared for my interview tomorrow and applied to Orange County EMS in NC. I would say a productive day. Really hoping my interview goes well.

Wow...did it get deleted that fast?? Not just locked but gonzo?

I had opened it up on my phone earlier today..then shift got busy so now when I was reading it again, thinking thru a possible reply, then I clicked on "Page 2", and poof, "You do not have permission to view this page" and I don't even see it in Recent Posts....

Not that I'm terribly surprised after reading that first page but wiw, that's gotta be some kind of record?

(Or am I just being blind? :p )

At least the other thread finally got locked.

So unfortunate because I tried a different tactic right before it was :-/

So a little dilemma. I left my previous ICU job when I got my full time flight job, the hope was to stay on PRN but there were no current positions open. So now my previous job called back asking if I wanted a PRN position. I originally said sure until I got my official offer and noticed it was the same pay rate as when I left. When I questioned this I was told they no longer offer a PRN premium, which used to be pretty good. I told them that given my experience, certifications, etc as well as what other hospitals were offering that I wanted a higher pay, and gave them a number. They came back with a pay rate much lower than I wanted, about a dollar more than I was making. I told them I would think about it and let them know tomorrow. To put it into perspective I could easily make $3-5 more and hour elsewhere and many places are offering sign on bonuses for experienced RNs. I enjoyed where I worked and do not want to make it totally about the money however when I could pick up at my current job or another hospital and make substantially more it is tough. Especially since I feel like my specific experience is very desirable. So either I settle and just take the job, decline the offer, or counter and give them a bottom line and see what they say (which it sounds like the offer was the best they could do). I don't want to burn bridges tho.

If your really worth that much.... I'd counter them, because if your desirable goods, you can raise their bottom line
