General Nursing Melting Pot

[Davey Do]

I've always been attracted to people's behavior and attempted to understand why they behave as they do. I have a theory here:

A definition of melting pot is "a place where different peoples, styles, theories, etc. are mixed together" and that's why I believe General Nursing is a popular forum. It's a potpourri of nurses, spanning the entire spectrum of nurses and nursing.

What do you think? 

Why do you come to the General Nursing forum?

 I'm sorry, Ms. 4RN but #1 is incorrect.

I see from a popup that you have already replied, so I will go read your latest post now.

Hmmm... false alarm.

As far as your prize, which I would love to bestow upon you, please allow me to check with The Forces That Be to see what the possible prize can be.

I too come out of habit. I often learn something, often I smile, and other times I just shake my head.

Of course, I look for my favorite posters...

I used to read the School Nurses forum, but with the pandemic and all I gave it up. 

The stories in the school nurse forum keep a smile on my face. Those stories are hilarious! ?

My theory on why nurses make some people sick is that the nurses are trying to make them sick.

 

Sort of like Munchausen.

LibraNurse27,

Glad this site has been so helpful! It was to me to when I first found it. Great for advice and to vent. I also share tidbits of info/ experience here and there and hope it is helpful. Now you can too!

Yes, very helpful tidbits! thanks = )

Similar to sour lemon, paradoxically, I come here to productively waste time. I find some of the self-destructive, dark aspects of humanity quite fascinating. As such, I usually peruse the addictions and nurses with criminal records sections. Otherwise, I am usually offering contrarian responses to some of the conventional thoughts/replies. Nothing is beyond questioning and/or challenging, until validity and reliability are ascertained. 

Happy new year to all ?

I do enjoy the recovery forum. That is an important one for those with those challenges, plus as a warning to others! It is a fascinating peek into that world.

I admire your perseverance Daisy! Makes it more fun for me!

Edit: I just realized why guessing this one is so difficult- I don't believe I ever posted a public image of him that I drew.

Makes me want to open up a side business selling discounted dental floss to people struggling with popcorn addiction...
