Do you find yourself having to respond to all the emails/texts/phone calls to maintain your network and not "burn bridges" or can you just ignore/delete?
Most of the messages/emails I read and Ignore, I do take the calls, just because I'm unfortunately a polite person, but I as soon as they say their spiel, I tell them that I am not available for x or y locum job. It sure is a delicate balance.
@@HafizGhani-f5d The shortest locums I know are for a week. In those cases, the facility needs vacation coverage for someone. In my opinion, unless it is an ongoing thing, it is not worth doing only one week, because the credentialing headache is the same, be it for a week or a year.

In your experience are there any locums available for weekends only? (Saturday-Sunday)
