Story I heard is every bit as anecdotal as yours so who knows. But what I heard, after an interview with the chief of a large Calgary hospital, was essentially what I stated and they know it's a large issue.
Could be just that hospital though I guess. Dunno. My wife had a 0.5 and it was like pretty much gold because she had worked on the unit for a long time. She gave it up and all the other nurses were basically fighting to get it because there were so few available.
