Working in Trauma ICU keeps me busy :) It'll get here when it gets here! I do agree that it is ridiculous, but, unfortunately I doubt we can do anything about it. Good luck everybody, and for those who just submitted their apps.....I do not envy you! Just try and be patient (haha, yeah right).
You working at the Med Center?? I just graduated from RN school and am having trouble getting an internship; if you know of anything please let me know.... Im taking the NCLEX next week..... :txflag:

You submitted your application almost a full month ahead of me... so i guess i got a way to go :banghead:
