  2. Unrealistic goal to get job as new grad in ICU?

    I'm so glad I found this post. I was wondering the same thing and these responses are

  3. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    My whole point in this debate is not to say that nursing is the best job and I'm not saying I know what it is like to be a nurse. Nursing has been said time and time again to be one of the best...

  4. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    You may know what nursing is like but you obviously don't know what it's like OUTSIDE of nursing or you wouldn't be so bold with your

  6. It Annoys ME HOW SOME PEOPLE CAN SAY "THEY ARE ONLY IN IT FOR THE MONEY"

    Nutmeg5575 replied to iheartnursing_cali's topic in General Nursing

    I also think that is a bad reason to go into Nursing. To me it is a benefit. I remember I got a job in the ER working as a Registrar when I started going to school for my marketing degree. I was...

  7. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    OMG Yes! I don't think there is such a thing as a perfect job. There are always times you will need to vent. It's one of those grass is greener on the other side type of things. I don't know...

  8. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    It's for that reason. For instance, when I was a computer operator, I tried so hard to find a job that paid a decent amount. But everyone and their brother knows this is a generation of technology...

  9. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    Oh then it's my fault for misunderstanding you. I wasn't trying to attack you but I have read in other threads how some people wish they would have went into business etc. I'm sorry I misunderstood...

  10. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    Like I said before, no job is 100% secure and no job has a guarenteed income. Out of all the jobs nursing is one with a lot of security and it has been named one of the top professions to go into....

  11. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    That's fine and I may eat my words later, but it is hard to take any of your opinions on the other side of the spectrum (ie. business, computers, law) seriously, because most of you haven't done that....

  12. What do you do for morale?

    Nutmeg5575 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I just got out of the military and I was the representative for my shop in the booster club. The booster club was a volunteer club to help arrange things to boost the morale of the people in the...

  13. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    I just don't have much sympathy. I have 3 people in my family who are nurses. One is my aunt who is supporting my uncle. My uncle is a preacher and doesn't make any income. My grandmother has been...

  14. The paradox in nursing

    Nutmeg5575 replied to zoprack's topic in General Nursing

    There aren't enough nurses that teach. To not sacrifice teacher student ratio for learning reasons they can only accept so many students per teacher. I am waiting to see if I can go to school in...

  15. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    I have also "heard" that while in some states community colleges have waiting lists and Universities don't. Here in Maryland there are no waiting lists. It's basically good grades = in the

  16. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    I think that nursing is a great job. I also think the pay is ok but that is not why I am going into nursing. I worked in the military as a computer operator and I almost finished a degree in business....

  18. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    I don't want anyone to think I'm complaining b/c I'm in fact getting an ADN. I'm just saying that if they want more BSNs they should pay them more and it seems if you have more education you should...

  19. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    Because in every job except for nursing the more education you have the higher your salary is. My uncle flys helicopters and he never went to college. His friend did and they do the same thing but...

  20. Nursing Unions-what is the good,bad, ugly?

    Nutmeg5575 replied to johnson0424's topic in General Nursing

    Can someone please explain to me why unions are such touchy subjects. I really don't care if the hospital I work at has one or not. If they do I might try it out and if they don't oh well. I will...

  23. Salary question??

    Nutmeg5575 replied to joe134's topic in General Nursing

    I agree that someone with a bachelors should get paid more. Everyone knows in most systems education=money. More education is more knowledge and hard work. I am only getting my associates but I plan...
