2. Emotionally tired

   Murse9185 replied to KalipsoRed21's topic in Stress 101

   This can definitely be a profession that will take its toll on a person mentally and physically. I've felt that way at times and you've been a nurse much longer. You just seem like you need a break to kinda figure out where you need to go from here( ...

4. Do we matter?

   Murse9185 replied to Diesel17's topic in CNA/MA

   Very true. However if the PCT/CNA is the opposite of that then :-/

5. Sadly, discrmination against male nurses still rampant in job applic process

   Murse9185 replied to Ecstatic2014's topic in Male Students

   I'm a male nurse and tbh I have NEVER felt discriminated against regarding my gender. Not to say this is right because it's not but as a male you're basically applauded by all (except older generation) for working in this profession. I've attained jo...

6. Are ER Patients Getting More Ridiculous?

   Murse9185 replied to us2uk4u's topic in Emergency

   Yeah I'm guessing I didn't correctly word that. I was just saying you were right and that OP was just venting. My apologies for confusion.

8. Are ER Patients Getting More Ridiculous?

   Murse9185 replied to us2uk4u's topic in Emergency

   Exactly! OP is just venting just like we all have to from time to time. Kind of a part of being human. Calm down with the self-righteousness.

9. Is it just me, or is this rude, sexist, and condescending?

   Murse9185 replied to RNdynamic's topic in Relations

   Haha yes!! People always give me the weirdest looks when I say this.

10. New Nurse ... not distinguishing myself as brilliant

    Murse9185 replied to SilverSister's topic in General Nursing

    Well that was an intense read. Pretty much what I'm getting from this is you're a new nurse who has made some mistakes. We all make mistakes as nurses, as humans. The important thing is you learn from them and don't let them happen again. At least yo...

11. Just a Nurse

    Murse9185 replied to 1jacque's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like you need to vent for sure. I've always thought it's funny how people think nursing is easy and not demanding at all. I'm a nurse(male) and I've worked some jobs that were mentally and physically demanding. I never realized until lately...

12. Am I a bad nurse?

    Murse9185 replied to smartypants22's topic in Private Duty

    Now idk what the parents side of the story of why they feel uncomfortable however from your side of the story I wouldn't say you were a bad nurse. A PDN job is not a good place to start out as a new nurse. I learned the hard way but now that's what I...

13. Anyone work a Baylor Shift anymore?

    Murse9185 replied to Ruger8mm's topic in General Nursing

    Haha, hit by a truck. I worked double weekend( sat and sun 0600-2200) for a 11/2 years and always felt this way on Mondays. Always hated doing anything on Monday.

14. Tattoos!

    Murse9185 replied to mmbucklerky's topic in General Students

    I feel as my generation( the twenty something's) get's older tattoos will be more generally accepted and it really won't matter if you're covered from head to toe. I have one tattoo on my chest and cannot wait to get more.

15. Is it just me, or is this rude, sexist, and condescending?

    Murse9185 replied to RNdynamic's topic in Relations

    I've had this issue as a male nurse at a previous job(LTC facility). I personally just kept leaving the seat up out of spite. Idk about your situation but if I had been approached about it in a different manner( lady was extremely rude) I would've tr...
