1. Saying goodbye to nursing

   magslu replied to malarwen's topic in LPN/LVN

   You are in a tough position, if you have a back problem, sitting at a desk job isn't going to help you anyway. Keep trying for various jobs, not all will require experience. I found that being persistent when looking for work pays off. Don't give up...

2. Terminated

   magslu replied to sdugan07's topic in General Nursing

   sdugan I was terminated in a similar fashion. They took situations and turned them into major issues. I told friends about it just to get a sanity check if I really did something off. In the end, I realize..... if they don't like you and it could be...

   magslu replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

   I wonder about you also !!!! ummmm...I really don't like to judge anyone and bullying is not in my interest. However, I think you get a kick out of bullying.... This girl needs some coaching and she is well over her head....people like you are just...

   magslu replied to STARL's topic in General Nursing

   Starl I am sorry for the multitude of negative responses you are receiving on the board here. I also have been blasted by them. I am new to nursing also, I also moved to different agencies, facilities looking for my right fit as well. I do not thin...

5. I hate nursing

   magslu replied to Neezy84's topic in General Nursing

   Hi Neezy I relate to you as well, I can relate to the misery. I just don't know how you stuck with it for so long. I have been slammed on this forum also, I asked the same question in a previous posting and got anywhere from ...are you really a nurs...

   magslu replied to magslu's topic in LPN/LVN

   BSNbeDONE, ASN, BSN, LPN, RN thank you, I think this was a culture shock... I intended on getting to exactly what you said, "infomatics" !! I just want back into a corporate position. I work best there. I can handle politics much better than what I ...

   ok happy people.... you took your swings you all must make the fit....yes, you are right, I cannot fit into this sector. I do not need a therapist as a crutch or meds to open my eyes to a very miserable profession you all seem to complain about. I'm...

11. Does anyone have good experiences in the nursing profession

    magslu posted a topic in LPN/LVN

    I have been reading so many articles of the trials and tribulations and I can relate to more of them than I want to. In ways, I wish I read the articles in this website before I put myself through the very tough nursing school. I am only a one year L...

12. Wrongful suspension??

    magslu replied to Mrsd1983's topic in LPN/LVN

    I agree with this, it is no longer safe for you there. If you stay, they will continue to find things to pick on until you are fired. Did they give you a policy handbook of some sort ? an attorney is going to ask you this. Not that this will help you...

13. Can they do that?

    magslu replied to MGLPN's topic in LPN/LVN

    commuter...you said it well they do tend to take advantage, they don't want to be inconvenient in finding the replacement so, they but the burden on the nurse. More importantly, I have seen too many times when management could care less about a patie...

15. I got fired

    magslu posted a topic in LPN/LVN

    I knew it was coming. I was not happy with the way I was being treated. I woke up in the morning dreading what might be ahead for the day. I loved the work, the clients, they loved me. However, my company did not appreciate me. I was badgered for t...
