Missing my AN friends

Nurses General Nursing

Published

I've been working a new job, one that I am not sure I will fit in with. It's a night job during Pacific time, so I miss most of the good threads until I wake up the next night. By then, they're over, deleted, or it's just irrelevant for me to post at that point.

I'm also working on my BSN, so that's taking away a lot of my AN time.

I miss you guys.

So, what are the best things I've missed this week?

Maybe we should start a poster's choice thread, kind of like ixchels "What I Learned This Week," of the most interesting top five threads of the week.

We could call it "The Most Awesome Threads You Missed," or "Where Were You When...," "How Did You Miss THAT?," or even "The Weekly Review" (boring, but apt).

What do you think?

Well for starters, Farawyn has been making a lot of spelling errors. Her status in the AN writing club (or whatever we're calling it) is at stake.

Also, the term "COB" apparently annoys a lot of people. Who knew?

We found out people are posting in the General Nursing Forums simply to increase readership, even though they know it should go in a different forum.

Hmm...what else am I missing guys? My brain is sleepy.

You are right, it was HeatherPaige. I believe she's gone completely. I searched for her & nothing comes up. I'm starting to wonder if her hatred for LVNs is because she was denied entry into an LVN program or failed out of one. AN will never know.

I wonder if she created another account under a different name? Sometimes I really do wonder about that.

Specializes in M/S, LTC, Corrections, PDN & drug rehab.
By the time I got to that one, I believe 50-something posts had already been deleted. I was a little sad that I missed all that!

I'll summarize, since it was 52 deleted posts between her & I. Lol.

She came to AN supposedly looking for advice/stories on the science pre reqs. She said she had 3 degrees but typed like a typical high schooler. She bit off everyone's head who gave any advice. Then she saw I was an LVN & said LVNs we "bottom dwellers" & kept talking garbage like that. I told her I reported her, she said I can't control her & right after that the post was closed. HAHAHAHA!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if she did. But I'm sure I'll get a message if she does.:p

.

However, there are apparently as many people who are eagerly embracing it, after seeing how we AN COBs are actually warm, nurturing (although not afraid to employ a bit of tough love when necessary) and a generally fun group. Yippee!!

We learned vermillion border, and philthrum, and an anal wink.

You can't tell if a substance is warm and sticky unless you do touch it!

meanmaryjean's nursing instructor was a KOB (kinky old bat)

Clubbing is the new black, or something like that.

Sometimes a code white and a code black are the same thing .

Ood is stingy with her coconut yogurt recipes!

There was a cheese ball pic in the men in scrubs thread that was sooooo ugh it poofed.

Spidey's Mom and Dogen crank up their coworkers by saying the Q word during a full moon.

ER nurses and floor nurses still cannot get along.

Specializes in Psychiatric and emergency nursing.

-To be fair, there are reasons we ER nurses cannot get along with some (not all) floor nurses.

-I'm just going to assume something is warm and sticky if it is next to a patient's bodily orifice. No reason to touch it. :)

-And you never say the "Q" word, regardless of moon phase

Um, excuse me. I'm only stingy with my coconut milk yogurt recipe because I haven't made it yet. I must critique before I give it.

Cani, I've been wondering where you got off too. Next time I'm up at 0200 unable to sleep I'll message you.
