1. My husband doesn't want me on ALLNURSES

   Guest941822 replied to Kitiger's topic in General Nursing

   (Pardon my rant:) Ugh. I see so many people calling OP's hubby controlling, in need of therapy, etc, just because he expressed his preference, which is different from hers (and out of concern for her safety and continued anonymity). If the situation ...

4. Are You Nurse Jackie or Nurse Zoey?

   Guest941822 replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

   Omg I love that show!!! Binge watch it when I should be sleeping. I'm definitely Zoey. I wish I were more like Jackie, but I'm a Zoey through and through. But there's a place for me too in nursing. :)

5. 2/20: what I learned this week: people do not understand TB

   Guest941822 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

   One more thing I've relearned... Some nurses just inspire you to be better. I floated to a different floor and worked alongside one of those type nurses. I'm thankful for those types. They work hard and work well. They're just doing their job taking...

6. Nursing speciality for someone that hates people

   Guest941822 replied to Gogol's topic in Relations

   Maybe try being a hospital sitter or CNA first. If you hate doing both of those, don't go into nursing.

7. 2/27 What I learned this week: crying on the job feels so much better when they're happy t

   Guest941822 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

   One of the biggest and most life changing lessons I've learned is that death can be more merciful than life. Sometimes people die of their disease and that's okay because, for them, to live would mean ongoing suffering. Being in curative care, it's e...

8. Nurse Bullying

   Guest941822 replied to Slhengy's topic in Relations

   Problems with co-workers will always be a leading cause of leaving your job, whatever job that may be. In my experience, there is so much drama in female-dominated workplaces. In jobs I worked that were male-dominated, if they had a problem they'd ha...

9. Should I leave this racist town?

   Guest941822 replied to ChutneyFries's topic in Relations

   I'm from the South. Please know that many people fly Confederate flags because they equate it with Southern heritage and culture, not necessarily racism. One of my good friends who flies that flag also is married to an African American woman. He simp...

10. WHY do so many people hate nursing? Sigh.

    Guest941822 replied to RachealAnne's topic in General Nursing

    I understand exactly where you are. I figured ICU would be the place for me, but I fell in love with hospice and palliative. You'll find your place, and it may be where you least expect. Maybe go for your LVN and try it out. If you find you don't lik...

14. What did you do after nursing?

    Guest941822 replied to bunnynurse's topic in Career Support

    I've known former nurses going back to school for Occupational Therapist Assistant or Physical Therapist Assistant. 2 yr program here. Pay differs by state but in mine, pay is the same or a little more than nursing. Hours typically M-F, 8am-3 pm or s...
