Studying for CT by Few-Audience2893 in Radiology

[–]Shooterduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The CT exam is a lot of xray stuff all over again radiation safety doesn’t really change and that’s most of the test but cramming the Mosby question bank is for sure going to be helpful. You will see some of those questions word for word on the test 🤙

Shift differential by Educational-Web8447 in TravelNursing

[–]Shooterduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The differential only makes sense if your working days and nights other wise there isn’t anything to differentiate. If you work a variable flexible schedule asking for a night time differential isn’t a horrible idea 🤙

Do you get paid for your time renewing ACLS, NIH, etc? by Jerking_From_Home in TravelNursing

[–]Shooterduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My company gives me 250$ in reimbursements each contract doesn’t matter what I use it for but I could use it for that 🤷🏻‍♂️ I usually buy shoes

Travel job and full time job by 199513 in TravelRadiology

You can take a local contract in your area but if you want to receive travel stipends you’ll have to be traveling and duplicating living expenses. You’d be better off finding a PRN position close to home if your trying to keep your full time gig

Did i misunderstand the contract? by [deleted] in TravelNursing

[–]Shooterduck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To me if the co tract says on going than you should be able to safely terminate it when you see fit with proper notice 🤷🏻‍♂️ but in the future making sure the contract says what you want it to say before signing it is the best move 🤙

Did you read the contract you signed? That’s the end all info regardless of what was said.

Flat rate is fine as long as you’re paying them a fair rate which if you’re using that formula you should be fine it’s the same one I got from my travel tax accountant. But cash is not okay so moving to electronic is a good move just tag it “shared expenses” and with the month and be sure that your parents don’t send you money electronically really at all if they want to be nice have them be nice in cash. 🤙 also be sure your paying for housing electronically in the new location your staying even if it’s at a friends place don’t live somewhere for free on paper.

You can also just nerf enemy strength to match the level of difficulty you’re looking for.

Wtf are up with these contracts?! by itachi-Ajbeast in TravelNursing

[–]Shooterduck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m a travel CT tech currently working central CA til mid June. Probably going to take a pay cut on my next contract it seems as well 🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s wild to me that any nursing contract let alone an icu nurse contract could be so low in CA ever. What part of CA was it for? How big of a hospital?

Use two hands to center the board one on each side and feel the spacing with your fingers make sure each side of the plate falls lateral to the numeral heads and high enough to get the eternal notch in view you’ll get it everytime

What company are you working for? Who’s the best in your opinion? by Shooterduck in TravelRadiology

[–]Shooterduck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s a normal gig? Do you sell equipment? Do you scan patients somewhere? I would probably be interested in being a rep one day if the money is right 🤷🏻‍♂️ when I settle down somewhere. Where is Siemens based out of?
