1. Crazy clinicals instructor doesn't like us using the restroom?

   dowhatthouwilt replied to JESSICAAA159's topic in General Students

   Report her as a group (that way there is no odd man out for her to take things out on). This is wrong on so many levels. What if someone is diabetic and they are starting to get hypoglycemic? Does she expect them to just crump on the floor? I get it,...

   dowhatthouwilt posted a topic in General Students

   Okay so I'm in a rough situation at the moment... final semester.. failing one of my casses! The professor told me I basically need to get a 94 on the final to pass. At first I was a weepy little puddle, all upset with myself and doing the whole "sho...

4. Family member hurt my somewhat fragile new grad confidence

   dowhatthouwilt replied to BlueChocolateCat's topic in Relations

   Someone replied on here saying the wife was a "nutter" and that OP should be happy she was not reassigned this patient. I personally don't think the wife is a "nutter" and most likely just stressed and upset?

5. Family member hurt my somewhat fragile new grad confidence

   dowhatthouwilt replied to BlueChocolateCat's topic in Relations

   I'm so sorry about this whole situation! I kind of feel like people who are or who want to be nurses tend to be "people pleasers". The sad truth is, is that sometimes, no matter how wonderful you may be, there's always going to be a person you don't ...

6. Am I out of line?

   dowhatthouwilt replied to dowhatthouwilt's topic in General Students

   You make a great point about emails being strictly business and advising against making any assumptions about the professor by the way they respond in an email. Yesterday was just one of those extra sensitive days and I think I may have been reading ...

7. Am I out of line?

   dowhatthouwilt replied to dowhatthouwilt's topic in General Students

   Well, I never thought I'd thank my crippling anxiety but because of all the stress I ended up getting very nauseous and vomiting a few times in the class I have prior to the exam. My professor noticed something was up and talked to me in the hall whe...

8. Am I out of line?

   I can't even remember the last time I felt this miserable... I don't know how I'm going to survive this semester.

9. Am I out of line?

   dowhatthouwilt replied to dowhatthouwilt's topic in General Students

   Thank you all for your replies. The last two replies were compassionate and I appreciate that! I got a reply and she basically said that "per policy" the only way to get out of an exam is acute illness or a death in the family. I guess near death jus...

10. Am I out of line?

    dowhatthouwilt posted a topic in General Students

    I'm not sure how I'm going to come off asking my professor this.... I had an awful weekend, my father has an on going health problem that took another turn for the worse and he was in the hospital all weekend. I haven't been able to sleep or eat much...
