   No kiddin-I didn't lose my license but they fired my ass on a trumped up lie. I called BS on the supervisor for defaming me and harrassing me and made an HR complaint. They paid me back by getting her friend in a case with me and this thing accused m...

2. Barnes ER vs Surgical/Trauma ICU

   stl2nola72 replied to jessallnurses's topic in Missouri

   I worked in the surgical/trauma ICU there in 2005 for my first trauma experience and it was the best nursing job I ever had. I LOVED it. I liked my coworkers and didn't find it catty at all. There were a lot of guys on staff then and it balanced out ...

7. Do nurses get fired often?

   stl2nola72 replied to queenjulie's topic in Relations

   I just got terminated last month for BS. I live in Louisiana (at will state). I worked with a bunch of the typical backstabbing mean girls and they were bad enough but my immediate supervisor was the problem. She was one of those with the Jekyll/Hyde...

8. I think that I have been GroupOne'd

   stl2nola72 posted a topic in Texas

   I think that I have been GroupOne'd by a Baylor manager that I faced off with on my second horrible shift as a travel nurse. I have been PRN since and have been constantly cancelled. I then applied to half of the Baylors, all of the HCA's and most of...
