We are a smoking facility. It's a pain in the ass. We only do it three times a day, but nursing/CNAs do it each time. It's terrible because if we are behind, the patients are NOT understanding, and...

Wh...what... How? HOW IS THAT CONFUSING? COFFEE DOES NOT GO THERE!

You can have mine. I quit! :D Best thing I've done for myself in years.

I imagine that "these LPNs" don't particularly care for your attitude. Most "people" wouldn't.

Last week, we spotted a new interviewee trotting down to the DON's office in a tiny t-shirt, out of which exploded her not-so-tiny belly, and some short-shorts. For extra classy points, she had...

Maybe some of the noobieishness (?!) has worn off since she posted this two years ago. At one point in time, I had 18 piercings in. I didn't get struck down by lightning, so I'm assuming I'm good...

"...who were unaware of the associated dangers" What the actual F. NO we don't need special shiny syringes for this! We need people that know pills don't get shot up into your veins!

I will attempt to get him a trip to the wound clinic and hope that one of them has some spectacular idea. We do not have a certified nurse at this facility. I volunteered to go get trained for...
