Nurse interview

Maddie, we get this kind of request about 5 times a week. You may or may not get an answer. The person answering may be a nurse or may be masquerading as a nurse. Pretty sure the spirit of the assignment is a face-to-face with an actual nurse. People here kind of bristle at these types of requests. There are plenty of places where you can have a real conversation with a real person. We'd be glad to help you figure out where because you might not know and that's okay. Mine might be the kindest response you get.

This nearly takes the cake for the 'upload a picture of yourself' request/requirement, though!

I was thinking about doing that. One of me without a shirt at the beach, zinc oxide on my nose, and sporting my Dallas Cowboys Speedo.

Old Dude- I guess you don't remember our Guys Day Out, huh?

Shoot, I didn't even see the "upload a picture" part. That's asking for trouble.

What the heck? My quote feature did not turn out quite right? Darn work computer!

You can fix it by making sure both ends of the quote brackets are complete.

You can even have someone say something they've never said;

Thanks, Davey Do! You're the best!

When I become a billionaire, I'm going to give you a million dollars!

When I become a billionaire, I will gladly give ya half!

I corrected the error. :)

No, I corrected the error!

Yea, that was a good day!! I'm glad I took my nipple rings out for the photo...I wouldn't want to embarrass myself.

Okay. Time to stop fooling around.

1. Where do you work?

WRMC (Wrongway Regional Medical Center)

2. Type of practice? (Hospital, school, etc)

Well, it's a big building with lots of patients, so yeah, I'd say it was an etc.

3. Educational background

Associate's degree. I started in January of 1976 and finished in May of 1990.

That is the honest-to-God's truth of what it says on my transcript. Yes, ladies and gentlemen (except you, OldDude) it took me 14 years to complete a two year program at LCCC-Larry & Curly Community College! (I was in the accelerated program.)

4. What's a typical workday like for you?

I work nights.

5. Do you participate in any nursing organizations?

It's like Groucho Marx said, "I wouldn't want to participate in any nursing organization that would have me as a member".

6. What do you like most about nursing?

Oh, a lot of things. Or, to be more specific, a lot of stuff.

7. What would you like to change about the field of nursing?

What would I like to change in the field of nursing? Change takes dedication, commitment, and hard work! I'd like to change that. Make change easier.

8. Any advice for a nursing student/ future nurse?

Just being courteous will open many doors for you.

But not as many as those automatic door openers.
