When I was OLD!!!!!!! I started nursing school when I was 38. Finished when I was 40.
11. How is working there different than working in lets say a hospital?
Good grief!! Sooooo many answers to that one. Not much at all like working in a hospital.

I was a keypunch operator, (told you I was old!!) Also an accounts receivable clerk.
13. What are the most common injuries you have seen? Not too many injuries. Most of the sick call requests are just bunk. They just want it ALL.

When I am 64. I will have 20 years in by then.
15. What is the most interesting thing that has happened to you on the job?
Probably watching a man that had "cut up" and was refusing to let us in to help him. He bled soooooo much.
