6. LPN from the underworld

   NewStudentGirly replied to NewStudentGirly's topic in CNA/MA

   I'm really not sure if it would cause a problem.... And after having worked with her a second night, I don't really think that she is lazy. I think maybe she is either on a BIG power trip or is just having some type of delegation issues. She doesn't...

    NewStudentGirly replied to Tony1790's topic in CNA/MA
