    Is it legal for your boss to dictate where you poop?

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know but perhaps a direct assault is at least worth considering. I know the policies and procedures for disciplining an employee where I work so I'd try a direct conversation with my manager....

    Male Nurse Disgusted by Female Nurses

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not trying to be divisive. In fact like I stated before I think our problem has less to do with the age-old and healthy as ever boys versus girls tribalism as it does with reasonable boundaries...

    Baffled.

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to SilenceintheLibrary's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah this isn't an RN versus LPN controversy at all. It's not even about a conversation about working with lazy bums who don't take care of their patients. Its about two concepts that elude most...

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to AloeBlox's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I hesitate to reply because quite a bit of the impact of this is state dependent based on the knowledge of what I picked up here chatting. I can tell you my experiences & reflections and I'll try....

    I Could Not Agree More!!! Your kids = Your issues. I've had many schedules butchered with One day on / one day off so who-the-heck ever could do whatever with their kids. Fortunately I work in a...

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to TexasMel's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Yeah, I'm a pee before work guy and thus far have not had a dilute specimen that I know of. Plus it puts it behind me for the day. I check my phone when I wake up in the middle of the night to go to...

    Dose BON check school records ?

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to Jasminex's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Yeah you are not a nurse. You cannot work as a nurse. If you do you are adding another crime to your resume. If you want to be a nurse you have to go through all the education and clinical...

    Dose BON check school records ?

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to Jasminex's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Is it legal for your boss to dictate where you poop?

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    I swear God made earthworms smarter than some management types. Imagine getting fired for this and then suing the hospital. Your lawyer asks "why did you fire this nurse?". What's the answer except...

    Nursing Grad dealing with the BON

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to nurse_girlie's topic in Nurses Recovery

    This is a horrible, putrid situation. You had an issue you dealt with years ago. You applied and went to Nursing School afterwards and you are sober. In short, you did what you had to do and got on...

    SpankedInPittsburgh replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    WOW!!! Where do I start? I've been following this thread since its inception and part of me has been afraid to say anything because I'm a guy. It's clear that as things stand us Nurses stand no...
