Well Mike, both my mom and my girlfriends mom HATE snakes. I have tried every persuasion and no budge...I gave up. As for the CNA pay....that's a lot. Around here like I said it's about 10-14 an hour. I'm just using the CNA to get my foot in the door at a hospital because around here the company Lourdes and UHS will pay for all or most of your school if you sign on for the number of years you will need help paying. So essencially I could get my college all paid for.
