O.k, I found out that the local comm. college won't take online A&P courses since I can't take an accompanying lab. So I looked into other prerequisites,and I'd like to look for an online statistics...

I agree. Too much testosterone or estrogen in one room is NOT a good thing!!! :) It really is an individual thing and not a gender-specific thing, though.

I agree. Would you want to be operating on by a surgeon who found HIS textbooks too boring? Would you want your taxes done by an accountant who found the latest changes to the tax code too boring?

My thoughts exactly. I originally went to college for engineering. At orientation (before classes even started), they said, "Look to your right and to your left; one of you will graduate as an...

Congratulations to you!!! Way to go!!!

Great, thanks for the info. I've got to have my manager's approval (and some form filled out) before I sign up for the course (to get my tuition reimbursed by my company), and he's out all this...

I think there's a big difference between wanting to be the best (or do your best) and wanting to be better than everybody else. Some people can't feel good about themselves unless they think they're...

I'm looking to get "back on track" with my nursing courses (took some courses in the past, wasn't sure if it was what I wanted to do, took some other kinds of courses, and am wanting to look into...

Honestly, what she really needs is love and sincere encouragement. All this is screaming "insecurity!" She probably, in her heart, hates herself and this is how she wishes she really was. But, in...

I would not have thrown away my comic book collection when I lost interest in collecting. I'm getting back into it now, but MAN I wish I still had the ones I spent all that time and money...

As a man, in some ways, I'm shocked that these doctors/interns are doing or saying anything close to this - especially with the uproar over sexual harrassment over the past few years, the...

Man, I made out like a BANDIT this year: - gift cards to Best Buy, Wal-Mart, and Books-A-Million - "The Stone Cold Truth" (Stone Cold Steve Austin's autobiography) - 3 games for my Playstation 2...

I respect you making the decision to leave and for standing up for what you believe in. I wish everyone would make the decision to report/confront businesses that have wronged them. Last month, I...

I guess it depends on how you define being a "people person". I've worked with and known people who said they weren't that, when what they REALLY should have said was, "I'm spoiled, selfish,...

My girlfriend, who is an RN, and I (I'm currently taking my prerequisites) live in the Triangle area (Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill). Where in NC are you moving?

NEVER be the first to give a number. Keep putting the ball back in THEIR court.

LOL! The title of this thread reminds me of Rodney Dangerfield saying that when he dies, he's going to donate his body to science FICTION... :)

Good point, batmik. I was going to respond, "Probably the ones that are the most expensive to live in." You'd better figure in the cost of living, transportation, etc. or you'll be QUITE...

It's the same in every curriculum. When I first attended college, I majored in electrical engineering. They told us in orientation, "Look to your left and look to your right. At the end of the...

LauraLou, I don't think you're being harsh at all. After all, you're not wanting them to do anything that you're not doing yourself. I have not patience for lazy, rude, selfish people, either. I...

The sad part is, some of these whiners will actually MAKE it through school and into the working world...where they'll still be whining.

That's just the point - usually people's "way of life" IS the problem. Are there exceptions? Yes. But by and large, for most of us, the problem isn't that we don't make enough, it's what we DO...

If you want to see the good and bad, spend a lot of time reading the threads on this board.

Well said, Nottanurse1. And Chrislynn2003, congratulations on your new job and your starting salary. That's impressive. I wish *I* could have started out making that much.

I understand your point, but I'm not sure I agree with you. I've seen people on this website complain that some auto workers get paid more than some nurses, and they're "just auto workers". BUT,...
