  1. I Should Be in Jail

    Nunya replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    If you can find out who the prosecuting lawyer is, probably sometime from the DA office, you can go to them and tell them what you saw. If your words will help their case you'll go to court.

  4. ROTC or OCS? (USAGPAN)

    Nunya replied to shin_eee's topic in General Nursing

    You're welcome! I think it all depends on where you are and how hard it is to get nurses to work ICU. It might be easier in a small hospital than a big one. Personally I wouldn't recommend it as I...

    Nunya replied to shin_eee's topic in General Nursing

    Here's 2020, they have the grade and time in service opposite but there's a $100 increase/month. Your grade is your rank in numerical terms: O-1 is 2nd LT O-2 is 1st LT O-3 is Captain...

  6. ROTC or OCS? (USAGPAN)

    Nunya replied to shin_eee's topic in General Nursing

    Here's the link for the current pay, well, 2019, FY 2020 started in October. So your pay as an O-1 with less than 2 (years) would be $3188/ month. This usually increases every year but it's not...

  7. ROTC or OCS? (USAGPAN)

    Nunya replied to shin_eee's topic in General Nursing

    Hi, I had to look this up but it interested me as I'm former active duty AF and former civil service for the Army. So, to even apply you need one year ICU experience. It looks like if accepted, you...

  8. Night shift and healthy eating

    Nunya replied to Felicia Saclolo's topic in Health, Stress Management

  10. nurse reviewer vs. school nurse

    Nunya replied to nursex23's topic in General Nursing

    As well as reading school nursing posts here, there's a FB page called...School Nursing that I think could be helpful. You can vent, ask for advice, see what other MS nurses do about this problem....

  11. Advice on jobs/WWYD?

    Nunya replied to CalaMom's topic in General Nursing

    You can quit most jobs at any time, even before you've officially started working. I would keep trying for the second job, and use the excuse other people have stated if you get it. If you actually...

  12. Live in lpn

    Nunya replied to Rockinurse's topic in General Nursing

    Will they pay for 24 hour care from a nurse who doesn't live in? Why not do

  13. How to Bring Holiday Cheer to the Bedside

    Nunya replied to Damion Jenkins's topic in General Nursing

    It’s understandable that you’ll find yourself busy per the usual, but finding an extra 30 minutes or so per patient will mean the world to them! This sounds like someone who doesn't...

  14. No One Understands

    Nunya replied to AlmostThere19's topic in General Nursing

    People who've never worked nightshift will never understand what it's like. Never. So either learn to live with it or do what you want to do and let the chips (and litter boxes) fall where they may....

  15. Peer Eval

    Nunya replied to ICU.RN23's topic in General Nursing

    And this is why peer evaluations are stupid. What other profession (outside healthcare) evaluates they're peers and then that information is used for evaluations, counseling

  16. Management-initiated fraud?

    Nunya replied to bignursedude's topic in General Nursing

    Does the glucometer have records of BS's that far back? That might

  17. Relocating

    Nunya replied to arrohde's topic in General Nursing

    I would start looking at available jobs now and realize you might have to take whatever you can get. Lots of people want to go to CO and several years ago it was hard to get a nursing job. Maybe...

  18. RN Dialysis training - Davita vs Fresenius

    Nunya replied to van_rn's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    Yeah, 48 hours/week plus OT doesn't seem ideal to me either and I'm not a single parent. Gee, I wonder why so many people have

  19. RN Dialysis training - Davita vs Fresenius

    Nunya replied to van_rn's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    16 hour shifts how many days a week to be considered full-time? Is that everywhere with this company or just at that particular facility? That's a looong

  20. New job and asking for time off

    Nunya replied to direw0lf's topic in General Nursing

    I've never had an employer ask about prior commitments during an interview, but I feel a brother's wedding and clinical for your Master's are "big" enough things that you should be able to get them....

    Nunya replied to Susan E.'s topic in Nurses Rock

    And this is why bedside reports should be

  22. Tampa to Sacramento Nursing move. Is it worth it?

    Nunya replied to Mursanary's topic in General Nursing

  23. Any month-long programs to get continuing ed credits all at once?

    Nunya replied to Lemon Bars's topic in General Nursing

    Just how many CEUs do you need? Are you looking to travel and get credits or just get credits quickly? I got all mine for FL in less than two

  24. PTO not in the budget for remainder of year
