  1. smallpox vaccine gone awry

    They lure unsuspecting highschool kids with big promises. I'm very supportive of our troops, the whole situation is very sad and desperate over there, where the locals will blow themselves up, or behead their enemy. These young people of ours deserve...
  2. New Nurse 6 Months-float ?

    Why are all your words capitalized? I didn't read your whole post, but I gather that you were floated and didn't like it. I've always enjoyed floating, I just act really dumb and they are always nice and give me an easy assignment. Of course you don'...
  3. phone calls no outsider would believe

    She was more pleasant that the barking dog, that's for sure.
  4. phone calls no outsider would believe

    LOL, I was wondering if I could slip a few metoprolols to a nearby barking dog with an irresponsible and unpleasant owner, just to slow down the dog's heart and make it go 'to sleep'. I was so PO'd at that woman when I walked down to politely inform ...
  5. smallpox vaccine gone awry

    Thanks for agreeing with me, I always appreciate that. I just don't trust the government and I think the drug companies are in cahoots with them, and they're all corrupt.
  6. The 'Image' of Nursing

    What is a 'disturbed energy field'? That sounds like New Age mumbo jumbo.
  7. smallpox vaccine gone awry

    Many people say that 'Gulf War Syndrome' was the result of the ridiculous quantity of vaccines that the troops were forced to receive, which was an assault on their immune systems of such magnatude that it caused damage. The government has always us...
  8. smallpox vaccine gone awry

    I mean, what a ridiculous example of an unneeded vaccine, of a disease that WAS successfully wiped off the planet, but the government subjects our servicemen and women to it, on the slim chance of some terrorist getting his hands on some smallpox tha...
  9. smallpox vaccine gone awry

    I'm not surprised. No, I didn't receive the vaccine and I think the hysteria over this was absurd. I actually had the smallpox vaccine at age 6 anyways. I'm so sick of our government and the ridiculous hysteria they whipped up after 911, now we are s...
  10. new grad having trouble w/ icu personalities

    Some people feel that a nurse should not go to ICU immediately out of school, maybe this is one issue with them? They will probably accept you once you have proven yourself.
  11. The 'Image' of Nursing

    You guys make some valid points. I think you probably have a variety of perceptions, depending on the person you are talking to. Some people are more tuned in to the fact that nurses are technically saavy and medically knowledgable. We can reinforce ...
  12. To the single parent night shifters

    Have you considered eventually finding a roomate? Maybe another single mom? Just a thought. Congratulations on getting your son and also on finishing nursing school
  13. need help--husband died at home

    I'm so sorry about this. I agree, it's easy to feel guilt, I went through that (guilt)when my husband died almost 10 years ago. I was 40 and he was 52, similar ages to you and your husband. This is a very stressful time, especially if you have kids. ...
  14. What do you think of Nursing Care Plans?

    Just for fun, I said they are a tool of Satan. I also think they are foisted on bedside nurses by academia and a waste of precious time.
  15. phone calls no outsider would believe

    I didn't think so at the time. Since I was adopted myself, I tried to give her some advise on how to pursue her goal of finding her daughter. We actually had a very interesting conversation. She probably didn't know too much about the process, and si...
