   Harmony213 replied to katesmom's topic in General Students

   Harmony213 replied to Harmony213's topic in General Nursing

   Do I write the letter and hand it to her at the beginning of the shift (I only see her when I work evenings)? Or do I come some day when I am not working and hand her the letter? I'm sorry this is all new to me. Thanks for all the great responses!

4. How do you tell your boss that you are quitting?

   Harmony213 posted a topic in General Nursing

   I do not know that I got this job, and if I don't, this will be for future reference. But how do you tell your supervisor that you are quitting and going to another hospital? I am not very good with confrontations and my supervisor really likes me, ...

11. Physics as pre-req for CRNA school

    Harmony213 replied to Harmony213's topic in CRNA

15. Suggestions for online org chem or biochem?

    Harmony213 replied to apaisRN's topic in CRNA

    How hard is it to take Biochem online, or any chemistry online for that matter. I know that I usually have trouble understanding something and need to go to the teacher for help. I know organic chem is a lot of memorize though, but I have never lea...
