Re: Anyone just admitted to the Vermont Tech program?
Sharon,
Are you a Southern Belle??
A long time ago in an another Island Nation (Nantucket), there was this Southern Belle from Atlanta, that when she spoke just turned me into putty......(sigh)...but that's another thread.
Reason for Nickname. I wanted to be a nurse in High School, but in the late 60's, early 70's it just wasn't an accepted profession for Men. My guidance counselor wanted me to undergo therapy for even mentioning it.
So, I went to Culinary School and became a Chef from '75-'96. As a chef I got to work where I wanted, Boston, Nantucket, Marthas Vineyard, Florida and the Bahamas (15 years).
I got out of the Restaurant Biz in 96, since then I have....worked for ATT as Directory Assistance Operator, Lowes, Auto Sales and now I work in Manufacturing. The manufacturing job is the 1st job that I have ever had that is M-F.
So I am pursuing the Nursing career finally ( I hope) we shall see how it shakes out.
No I have not heard from Brandy, I have looked at newspapers in her area to see if her name popped up, if in fact Brandy is her real first name.
You must have 15 posts by now..? so I could send you a Private message if need be.
100% NCLEX pass rate is pretty good, I hope that if and when accepted I don't skew the average.
Are you going for RN or LPN? LPN here as it would give a good foundation towards RN, I am older than you by about 25% so I don't have time that you have
