left stranded
I trough my recently signed with my agency to work at the SAnta Clara Kaiser. Kaiser requires that al agnecies go through nursefinders. Well with contract signed and a confirmation to my agency I packed up and moved when my last asisgnment finished. Since I have my own kitchen ware and patio furniture I rented a truck. I also have a son that lives with me,(so this effected more than me).
Well to make a long story short I got moved in completely, in 95+ weather in an un aircondition apt. The morning I was to do the didatic orientation my recuiter wakes me up that Santa Clara is cancelling the contract. My recruiter asked me to call the manager to talk them out of it. The best I could do is get a 3 to 4 week delay. Meantime I been left holding the bag. It looks like Kaiser or nursefinders dropped the ball. They said they try to get in touch with me but I had phone service until I left my apt in Los Angeles, besides, this would have only been 2 days before the didatic oreintation. There is some talk of per diem until my new contract? would start. This isn't guarteened. My agency is threatening to charge me the rent(this isn't in my contract I have to do). I told them no I did nothing wrong and I the one being "punished". I have told them if needed I wil consult an attorney. Has this ever happened to anyone else. This was also a first for my small agency. They don't know what to do.
