1. Nurses getting fired left and right...

   Since1982 replied to Mrs. SnowStormRN's topic in Professionalism

   Something I've noticed too. I was fired last month for forgetting to clock-in one morning. They let me work through the day, clock-out, go home, then called me to let me go over the phone. Sounds ridiculous? Yep. At least potential employers will thi...

   Since1982 posted a topic in Correctional

   I have an interview on Monday and was wondering if anyone has any experience working in Memphis jails. I've read horrible stories and I've read great ones, but none about Memphis.

3. Northwest MS CC LPN

   Since1982 replied to lizzy1982ms's topic in Mississippi

   I'm currently enrolled in the LPN program at the DeSoto campus. I actually just got home from a busy clinical day (I love it!), so if this isn't helpful or makes no sense (so tired!), feel free to send me a message on here! Well, when I applied to th...

5. Who made it through their first week alive??!!

   Since1982 replied to beckersSN's topic in General Students

   I've still got one more day to go before I officially survive the first week. We've been assigned 24 chapters to read and do the workbook for, on top of several written assignments. Plus, five tests and our first check-off next week... And you know w...

6. Who else has classes that begin at 8:00 am??

   Since1982 replied to Jamie2887's topic in General Students

   Class from 8-4, Monday through Friday. It's a 30 minute commute and I'll probably wake up at about 6 or so. Am I a morning person? Uh, no. I'm going to have to set at least 4 alarm clocks just to make sure I get up....

   Go to the health department for your Hep B shots. The one here wanted $10 each while the doctor's office wanted $68.

8. Violation of privacy re: student medications?

   Since1982 replied to Murse901's topic in General Students

   Our school did the same thing at orientation. Gave us a piece of paper and wanted us to write down all prescriptions we're taking and what doctor gave them to us. I'm not taking any, so it didn't even occur to me that it could be a violation of priva...

9. What are the best BLACK PENS

   Since1982 replied to dark10gable's topic in General Students

   I tried a new one from the bookstore yesterday. Pentel RSVP. It's a nice, simple, nongel pen that writes incredibly smooth. I'm a very picky pen user and I give it a thumbs up;)

10. Orientation is tomorrow...

    Since1982 replied to Since1982's topic in General Students

    Oh and to those who have yet to have orientation, please make sure you show up on time! At 9 am on the dot, they took roll, wrote down the names of the three absences and called them immediately. One girl showed up ten minutes late, one boy showed up...

11. Orientation is tomorrow...

    Since1982 replied to Since1982's topic in General Students

    Woo! I'm done! Well, with orientation;) Now comes the hard part, eh? lol It was basically just rules, handbooks, and what to expect. I think I'm very blessed as far as my teachers go, they seem wonderfully down to earth and they even have--gasp--sens...

    Since1982 replied to Since1982's topic in General Students

    OH MY GOSH! Are you joking?! Oh no! *hugs for you* lol That's just unfathomable to me. Wow, I feel very blessed for my little four hour day now lol! Best of luck to you!!

13. Orientation is tomorrow...

    Since1982 posted a topic in General Students

    I'm nervous! It's going to be for four hours! Even when I was a new college student, orientation was only an hour and a half. What on earth could be discussed for four hours? I keep thinking the silliest things, like they're going to tell us there's ...

14. Sticker shock before I even get started!

    Since1982 replied to livesay's topic in General Students

    Does anyone know roundabout what Varicella titer costs? I was able to scrape up the proof of immunizations for everything I need (MMR and Hep B) except for that.

15. Sticker shock before I even get started!

    Since1982 replied to livesay's topic in General Students

    Checkup, copy of immunization record or titer results, Hep B, TB test, and a drug test. I have no insurance, so this is gonna hurt...
