    HiddenAngels replied to BeatsPerMinute's topic in General Nursing

    Is bullying and being micromanaged the same thing. I'm just curious... I wouldn't say I was bullied but I would say I was overly micromanaged. It wasn't easy to deal with. My breaking point was...

  8. Do I have the job or not? No clue

  9. What to do? Is this Defamation of character?

    HiddenAngels replied to Amithrivingorsurvivubg's topic in Nursing Career

  15. Radial Hematomas

    HiddenAngels replied to ben67's topic in Cardiac

  21. This was interesting in the news today...

    HiddenAngels replied to toomuchbaloney's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics
