1. Why Are So Many Students Worried About Expensive Tuition

   whoknows56 replied to khiasdestiny's topic in General Nursing

   I'm going to be point blank. Debt matters and the more you have, the more stress people tend to have and less money that can be spent in other areas. Some people pay $500 a month in student loans. That's around $6,000 a year. It isn't as bad as peopl...

   whoknows56 replied to nkara's topic in Relations

   sure does take a while to say that word. i always get a kick out of myself when i type "delte" instead of "delete." i always do that, lol.

3. Use some class/compassion

   whoknows56 replied to nkara's topic in Relations

   There are very few things that **** me off and threads like this is one of them. It blows my mind how some people get affended by a few written words on a Internet forum. The OP is one of the people I see everyday getting walked over. We should put t...

4. Use some class/compassion

   whoknows56 replied to nkara's topic in Relations

   FYI, "alot" isn't a word. There's no word such as "alot." You spell it a lot. For example, "that is a lot of weight." Now compare that to, "that is alot of weight."

5. Use some class/compassion

   whoknows56 replied to nkara's topic in Relations

   Oh please. If you want a discussion that doesn't involve ******* another person off, doesn't involve conflicts of opinion, go talk to a priest. What are you going to do the first time a co-worker calls you stupid or a patient has no respect for you ...

6. Anyone ever been recognized on AN ?

   whoknows56 replied to Keepstanding's topic in General Nursing

   Yeah, it is best just to leave it as is...co-workers going to the web to talk about stuff and/or to vent...or even just to ask questions. As long as no laws are borken on this forum, I just leave stuff as is. I know a couple of peopole who work a dif...

7. Top interview ways to NOT get the job (New Grad RN)

   whoknows56 replied to hatingthewaiting's topic in General Nursing

   Agreed. Once you are out of school and have graduated, it is time to leave the "hate/dislike" of that and that from school behind and move on. Just give a positive tone to stuff.

8. Top interview ways to NOT get the job (New Grad RN)

   whoknows56 replied to hatingthewaiting's topic in General Nursing

   When I have a job interview and if I didn't like the person that interviewed me, or I got a bad feeling about the place, I don't even bother checking in on the position or even sending a thank you note (I also have ended a couple of interviews by say...

9. Nurse Salary vs. Teacher Salary?

   whoknows56 replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

   Education debt is just debt. You will get it paid off as long as you make it a focus of your expenses. Sure the ADNs will make as much as you, but there is more to it. You got the chance to experience the college atmosphere and you have more career g...

10. Nurse Salary vs. Teacher Salary?

    whoknows56 replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't read the responses, so I might repeat what others may have said. Don't look at just salaries for the following reasons: 1: Nursing has more upside in career potential 2: Teachers teach the same subject year after year and work with the same...

11. Are you aware of how you conduct yourself in public?

    whoknows56 replied to rkitty198's topic in General Nursing

    Where my parents live, a small rural area in Wisconsin, most nurses become nurses so they can get a decent job. Most people already know each other even before going to nursing school. It's the patients that come from outside of the small city that d...

12. Are You Popular At Work?

    whoknows56 replied to Vito Andolini's topic in General Nursing

    I get along with everyone since I don't ***** about stuff. I've learned my lessons in past jobs. When I graduated high school, I got a job transporting patients....I was going to college at the same time. There was another co-worker that was a nursin...

13. Difficulty of Nursing Classes Vs. Biochemistry

    whoknows56 replied to IcanHealYou's topic in General Nursing

    I took a pathology and pharm class that is focused towards nursing students. The classes were as easy as heck...nothing like med school level. I took organic chemistry and biochemistry and those courses were much tougher. Debating between a nursing...

14. $100,000 in student loan debt?

    whoknows56 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    No need to say a person is being reckless like on this forum. I know some people what loved their major of choice until their senior year (people can change). So they were stuck in school for two more years at a private school racking up more debt. S...

15. $100,000 in student loan debt?

    whoknows56 replied to FireStarterRN's topic in General Nursing

    The average med school debt these days is around $170k. It's only going to get worse as tuition keeps going up and up. Some med schools charge $80,000 a year just on tuition. That's a complete rip off.
