    Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    Luchador replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    I would be sure to have your little notebook out and take notes of the feedback they give you. Seriously it sounds like you have some good nurses there but some evil ones too. I do pretty much...

    Unfair Clinical Evaluations

    Luchador replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Posts like this make me so glad I am a male nursing student in my last year. I do pretty much everything the original poster does, even carry around a tiny notebook I write things in and stick in my...

    Spouse of nurse

    Luchador replied to martymoose's topic in General Nursing

    When I was a teacher I made about half of my wife's salary. It will be the same or worse when I start nursing. I'm glad she didn't think like the

    Fishy, illegitimate contract..?

    Luchador replied to tinybbynurse's topic in General Nursing

    So I just had an interesting conversation with my lawyer buddy. I pulled up the original post and showed him it. He said that parts of it are legitimate and parts of it are not. Obviously saying you...

    Fishy, illegitimate contract..?

    Luchador replied to tinybbynurse's topic in General Nursing

    The whole thing just seems weird as hell. If my new employer asked me to hand write my contract on paper to his dictation and put in weird stuff like that I would laugh in his face get up and walk...

    Ohio Hospital Fires 23 After Fentanyl Overdose Deaths

    Luchador replied to J.Adderton's topic in Nursing News

    I am curious as to what you think the possible outcomes are of giving a patient an IV paralytic and then extubating the patient. I am grateful for your thoughts because they illustrate how a go along...

    I always get called if someone is sick

    Luchador replied to Grogon's topic in General Nursing

    I will never understand why people answer the phone if work is calling them on a day off. Do people think they are calling to tell them that you are getting a huge raise? Are they calling to tell...

    Recording Lectures?

    Luchador replied to FashionablyL8's topic in General Students

    I'm not an auditory learner, really, but I have a long commute to school so I record lectures. Even casually listening to them as I drive is great help. In particular it seems a good way to catch the...

    I'm So Over Nursing. I would rather work at Costco!!

    Luchador replied to rnfrombama's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry you're having a rough time. I suspect after working for $10.75 an hour at Costco for a week you'd start looking for another RN job. Retail is the worst. Horrible bosses, on your feet more than...

    Options for Non-Nursing Degree Holders

    Luchador replied to MaiaS's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello! You should look at options in your area because the variability in programs is huge. I have a master's in English, yet the "accelerated" BSN in my area would have taken longer than the ADN...

    Birth Control and 12 Hour Shifts

    Luchador replied to sillymu's topic in General Nursing

    I'm always mortified by the stupid crap I say once they dope me up. I don't remember (versed), but apparently I asked the nurse about alteration in discharge quantity etc.
