Texas residents are banned from the new contracts.
Sitting on the side sounds like roulette... presumably those who are mobile will leave the state for other lucrative contracts, and the rest will work "within the system" (probably wishing for a stronger union while they campaign for a slice of the pie).
- toast0 5y agoI'm no healthcare forecaster, but if the pay for new work is currently 3x and the state isn't doing much to improve conditions, in 30 days there's likely to still be a lot of demand for new work. If I were a nurse, I think I'd have a hard time with sense of duty and sitting out, so a one month traveling job in another state (if possible, one that's doing better at vaccination) for a few weeks would feel better than sitting around, but at the same time, when the government incentives say to sit around for 30 days if you want to get paid more, who am I to not follow incentives.
