But Thanks a bunch you guys, By the way, do any of you know each other and get together sometimes????
Kaohinani,
Religion should not be an issue. I'm sure many people of different religions work at these hospitals. I really wouldn't call it a "Catholic hospital"... . It's open to everyone, and there's no rules, standards, etc...

I've never met anyone on this forum, but I feel like I've gotten to know a lot of the regular posters on the SD forum.

Good luck with everything!

McKennan started out with Catholic rootsl and was run by the Presentation Sisters for a number of years and people of all faiths and creeds have been and are welcomed there.

I feel the same, that I would be more comfortable working in an environment that had the same priorities as myself. That would be including the religious aspect. I don't have anything against Catholics, and I know that they don't ask my religious affiliation, but it was just a question.
Too bad we can't all get together, you all sound like a great bunch of "guys"

Hey Kao, I'm actually leaving tomorrow (Sat ) to go to Sioux Falls with my wife to look for a place to live. We'll be there until the 31st, and will be moving there the 2nd week of October for good. I would love to get together being that I've lived in New Jersey/New York my whole life and won't know anyone other than family and my wife's friends ( she's originally from Sioux Falls ). I'm so happy for you guys to be moving and good luck with the job search, it'll work out well. Both my wife's mom and aunt work for Mckennon and they both love it and have nothing bad to say, if that helps at all. Good Luck and hope to see you in the future.

OMG Kao, I didn't realize that you've already bought a house there. That is fantastic!!!

Well, just because we have not all gotten together YET doesn't mean that it couldn't happen in the future. Right?

cbest, Have a good and safe trip to SF! and Good Luck with the search. The weather for this weekend is looking good too.
Who knows, I've probably seen some of you guys before without knowing it. I deal with the public on a daily basis at work.
