  1. "Not sure what unit you will be hired into..."

    Again, it’s interesting the Nurse managers won’t respond to this post. Cowards
  2. So TIRED OF IT

    Is that Susie person gone? Is it safe to go back to following this thread?
  3. Lifetime Stutter

    I used to have a stutter up to my early twenties. I used a technique that eventually got rid of it. I don't remember how Or where I learned it, but it helped me. What I did was : talk on the exhale. Nice deep breath in.....then talk on the exhale. I ...
  4. Asked about citizenship during triage

    At least I got my answer...it's not common, and it's a good chance that either guy was a moron and misinterpreted or just a fluke by some odd hospital or staff member. Got it.
  5. Asked about citizenship during triage

    Uh no. He was ASKED IF HE WAS A UNITED STATES CITIZEN . That s pretty straight forward. Not did he have insurance. Not if he had been abroad. Not if he had any cultural considerations. In triage, by the triage nurse. Not by the person with the clipbo...
  6. Asked about citizenship during triage

    Well that makes sense, I just don't recall being asked about money, even in triage, but if that's how it's done now I'm not surprised! And so I guess it's customary. Huh. I'm not concerned about the quality of care, I still like to believe that most,...

  8. Asked about citizenship during triage

    Thanks, he just told the truth, which is that he was a US citizen. I'm not asking what to do now, (Patient relations? Puhlease) I'm just curious if this is done a lot? Is this common now in the US?

  10. Meaning of your username?

    My user name is based on a Sailboat I lived on while living on a boat in Miami. It was eventually destroyed by hurricane Wilma. I still miss her, and Miami :)
  11. Meaning of your username?

    No but my DH does
  12. Can I wear the scrubs for an interview?

    I would definitely change my clothes, if only to be clean and feel f resh, but I have never understood this love affair with business suits for interviews!! WHO CARES???? I just don't understand it. I have hired people, and I couldn't care less WHAT...
  13. Placed on Performance Improvement Plan - What should I do?

    This is so depressing. Is it just nursing? Does this happen with bankers? Teachers?
  14. Now that you're retired...

    Traveling the western Caribbean in out sailboat. Funny though, I dream about nursing frequently.
  15. if you graduated in the last 5 years
