:waving: Welcome to the site, Susan! I am glad to have you with us.

Sorry to hear about your license hold up. I have heard that Illinois is also a hard state to get a license from, if you are transfering here. :whatever:

Anyhow, hope you drop by often; I look forward to seeing many of your posts.

'Cat'

Question Re: Brand NEw traveler

Hi txgl,
Hey, ya'll braver than me! I have been thinking about traveling for about 2 years now and it all seems too UNPREDICTABLE. I need to know my checks are coming in accurately and apartment/sleeping arrangements are satisfactory. What is the problem with your housing? Who are you traveling with?
Thanks Debc

Hi Deb,
We are traveling with Readylink. WE finally got everything taken care of, its just not exactly what was promised. But it is all finally working out. We move into our condo on Friday. WE are paid everyweek with a guarantee of 36 hrs and more if we choose.

Hope to hear from you again. I'll let you know how things go. Our contract is 13 weeks.

Susan
