   reg.nurse replied to Stephen.Stevens's topic in New Nurse

   40,000 w/ no experience in an economic time when there are literally NO jobs is great. 40,000 is much better than 000,000.00 if you ask me.

   reg.nurse replied to mnf4ever's topic in New Nurse

   Without all the details, I have been in your shoes. I wait until the person has everyone's attention and I look at them in the most ridiculous look that I can give. I would say something like Do you really have to treat me in such a way that is meant...

    Never let anyone tell you you cannot do anything, how do people you do not know have that much power over you and who you will become. Its meant to scare you, its not for the weak.

    reg.nurse replied to ChinupBSNRN's topic in General Nursing

    I am in awe? Nights are usually short, and you're being switched from night to day. I cannot believe it. I need to work nights with my family situation, so that would cost me the differential and it would cost me about 400.00+ a month in daycare. I w...
