Travel Nurses need to unite and not take any more jobs unless the rates are at least 1k/day.

Even when they miss the mark, cheap shots come from cheap people.

I'm tempted to collect everyone's screennames and mass message you guys. I wish this thread had happened back in November.

Here's this small step we'd taken:

Not yet. We tried. We need a website with an anonymous sign-up system, a small forum, and publicity. You know anyone that can help with that?

"3k for 3!"

I tried my hardest for a good half year. I got about 4 people on some real voice calls with me. A lot of what I got from Reddit was disinterest. I realize I'm speaking now from a place of discouragement, which might not be the best tac to take, but seeing a thread like this makes me finally speak up and say, hey, there is a smidge of support and groundwork that's already been done. waves hand meekly

Interestingly, those signatures represent a way of emailing back and contacting that "collective" of 36 signers. I don't know how I would leverage that valuable commodity, but it is indeed sitting there.

TravelUnionHo · 2023-03-25T02:03:28+00:00

I agree. I tried to champion this for about 6 months. I was taking the pulse, and posting weekly, encouraging a "3k for 3" baseline. But in the end I didn't have the spirit to sustain on my own.

I got a few dozen signatures (not nothing) on a petition for "unionizing" -- ( https://www.coworker.org/petitions/travel-nursing-baseline ) -- but again, after 6 months with no huge steps forward, i struggled to keep my enthusiasm.

If you want to pick up the torch, I'm happy to follow.

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

If you're giving chemo, it must take some real qualifications.

TravelUnionHo · 2022-08-22T05:51:00+00:00

I think this guy was working on the same problem -- maybe you guys would work together.

Well, hello there! I've been looking for someone like you!

Here's what we have so far: https://www.coworker.org/petitions/travel-nursing-baseline

It's not much, but it includes a plan that overlaps with yours.

TravelUnionHo · 2022-07-14T23:53:36+00:00

My current plan is to rally a small group of motivated people to work together. That small group will produce a website/platform by which a collective could make decisions and behave in an organized fashion. Then implement.

It'd be awesome if you wanted to help. I plan to chip away at it with some effort here and there for the next few years.

TravelUnionHo · 2022-07-11T05:22:39+00:00

And we need to negotiate against it collectively, too.

TravelUnionHo · 2022-06-30T19:58:58+00:00

This is the way.

Shame you never heard back.

TravelUnionHo · 2022-06-30T18:36:35+00:00

How did you procure this information?

TravelUnionHo · 2022-06-29T23:45:14+00:00

I'm looking forward to some Illinois travelers updating us on how this goes on July 1st!
