    The Real Reason Republicans Want to Oust Liz Cheney

    NurseBlaq replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Where is Dick Cheney? He always has something to say but he's silent about this. I just know he has something brewing behind the scenes. He's

    Are there any nurses that actually LIKE nursing?

    NurseBlaq replied to CShel's topic in General Students

    I think there are more nurses who love their jobs and not. As someone said, people vent on here and discuss nursing things that others can relate to or give advice on how to solve problems. Nursing is...

    MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    NurseBlaq replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Who is "them" and who are you to tell people who experience racism on a regular basis what the hell is and isn't racist and how to perceive it and when to be offended? I'm definitely no racist but...

    Total Number of Nurse Practitioners Hits 325,000

    NurseBlaq replied to MentalKlarity's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Again, saturation is area-related. I don't support diploma mills either but they're starting to have problems even before their students graduate. Diploma mill students are having a hard time finding...

    Total Number of Nurse Practitioners Hits 325,000

    NurseBlaq replied to MentalKlarity's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    No, that's what oversupply is doing to your area. You're applying your experience to the country when not every market is the same. According to you, people shouldn't want to move up in nursing and...

    MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    NurseBlaq replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Who the hell is "the girl"? Why don't black folks seem to have names with certain ilk. Her name is Ma'Khia Bryant. @toomuchbaloney stop wasting your time on racist ignorance. I'm trying to figure out...

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

    NurseBlaq replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Rand Paul is the grandchild of the antiChrist! What the hell is wrong with him? He's playing a dangerous game. Politics and the minions following the lies are literally killing

    Bedside/nightshift burnout

    NurseBlaq replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    What's your view on childcare like 24 hr daycare centers, college students looking for extra money, etc? My children had child care because I didn't have family around to help out and I worked 2nd and...

    Buying a House on a Nurse's Income: How Do Nurses Afford $450,000+ Houses?

    NurseBlaq replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    The only homebuying advice I can give is, buy within budget, as in don't max out on the loan just because you can unless it's a home you really love. Buy a home that suits you, with the exception of...

    MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    NurseBlaq replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    I muted that poster because they're just as bad as the one I last responded to. Who the hell is "your people" as if they know my race. My bloodline is multiracial but just like the bigots I see IRL,...

    Breakroom Pet Peeves

    NurseBlaq replied to DesiDani's topic in General Nursing

    Funny you should say this, I have never smoked but I used to take smoke breaks because it seems like the only people that got them were smokers. They'd be like "you don't smoke", and I would reply...

    Tenet Hosp strike enters eighth week

    NurseBlaq replied to Hannahbanana's topic in Nursing News

    I don't get it. Hospitals would rather pay exorbitant amounts for travelers than pay the staff that's there. It's a control issue. Let me also add, Tenet has a track record of being

    Shocked- I'm on CPS registry?!

    NurseBlaq replied to SeeThruFaded's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    Maybe seek advice from an attorney via your local Legal Aid office. There's something holding it up and you need to know exactly what it is in order to be prepared to fight it. I wouldn't openly guess...

    Days off

    NurseBlaq replied to nurseguy213's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Find the policy that states you can be fired for not working your scheduled day off. If it doesn't exist, don't answer or tell them no if they ask in person. You have a duty to be safe, but first and...

    I need advice, possible HIPAA violation

    NurseBlaq replied to KTT's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    Don't be nervous, you should have received training. You can ask the unit manager or nurse educator for an in-service on the system if that will make you feel better. You can then explain you don't...

    I need advice, possible HIPAA violation

    NurseBlaq replied to KTT's topic in HIPAA Challenges

    No. I'm sure they know you're new and getting used to the system, well I assume you're new and that's why you don't know how to navigate the system yet. However, don't make a habit of it. Did you not...

    Should I become a nurse if I don't like bedside care?

    NurseBlaq replied to Sweetjen09's topic in General Students

    No. Nursing is NOT your thing. Please continue with something else. Don't mean to sound harsh, I just have a pet peeve about nurses thinking they're too good to do the "icky" stuff. It comes with...

    NurseBlaq replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    I hadn't read this thread in a while. Wow! Well, SilverBells, I'm glad you switched therapists and are now looking at homes in your range. Good luck in both

    MNA and Nurses Respond to the Killing of George Floyd by Police

    NurseBlaq replied to tnbutterfly - Mary's topic in General Nursing

    Nope. Just reading your post on racial issues including your constant asinine labeling, ahem "paranoid state" and your dismissive need of "how sad it must be" for me and you "feel for your coworkers"....

    I didn't know I wasn't allowed to post unless I'm going down a rabbit hole. Even still, that's not what you said. Why couldn't you have said what you meant instead of asking me redundant questions...
