    Pharmaceutical Sales?

    Multicollinearity replied to Jesskanurse's topic in General Nursing

    Not everyone casts aside their morals and ethics. I didn't. I will say that it is my opinion that sales is an honorable profession if done in an honorable manner. Sad to say - the general public...

    Pharmaceutical Sales?

    Multicollinearity replied to Jesskanurse's topic in General Nursing

    I was in sales (health insurance broker) for too many years. You need to be a 'special' kind of person to go to the darkside and still enjoy being alive. What others have said about projecting an...

    UMC in Tucson

    Multicollinearity replied to Janna_H's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Is it true that the 4:1 ratio at UMC means that most units don't have CNA's or PCT's? I've been told that the RN's do 100% of the care. Something tells me that is urban legend that perhaps other...

    What have other nurses done that have freaked you out?

    Multicollinearity replied to texas_lvn's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, I have another one. I ran into a psych nurse who lives in my neighborhood. She works at a posh psych hospital that is frequented by the rich and famous. I asked her: "So any interesting patients...

    Wellbutrin

    Multicollinearity replied to lovingtheunloved's topic in General Nursing

    I think wellbutrin raises anyone's seizure threshold a bit. I remember working ER (as an admitting clerk with big ears and big peepers) and a patient came in having seizures. She had been camping with...

    Need a walkthrough

    Multicollinearity replied to leeniebeanie_2767's topic in General Nursing

    Yep. I've decided to buy the basic nursing equipment before I start the program and start practicing now. I don't want to be fumbling in the first semester with this type of thing. Just the other day...

    Multicollinearity replied to leeniebeanie_2767's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah - in A&P II lab. Silly me, I was so consumed with thinking about taking the exam in a few minutes, I didn't read directions for taking a BP. The lab tech also told me to just watch the...

    Multicollinearity replied to leeniebeanie_2767's topic in General Nursing

    How timely. It took me 45 minutes to take my own BP in lab last week. I finally got the bright idea to find my pulse sound first - then take the BP reading. Oh yes I can be the slow classmate at...

    Need advice - bail on my accelerated BSN for an ADN?(long)

    Multicollinearity replied to fleur-de-lis's topic in General Nursing

    This really goes to show how different approaches motivate/affect different people. It's great that this approach worked for you. We all have different buttons to push. Every semester I get uptight...

    I think you are projecting your own life onto her. Of course this is something we all do to varying degrees. You wanted to get in CRNA school. You needed near perfect grades. Fleur has indicated zero...

    Piper, she's indicated that she feels like she's going to crack now as it is. So you are telling her to push harder? It definately sounds like she needs a pressure release, not more

    Multicollinearity replied to fleur-de-lis's topic in General Nursing

    The two BSN programs I am applying to (large state universities) require a 2.0 to proceed in the program and graduate. I guess I should count my blessings that this is a stress escape option for me,...

    *sigh*. I guess a 'C' is the new 'F.' I've never received a 'C' but mentally I use it as a stress relief. You know...the world wouldn't end if I got a

    Multicollinearity replied to fleur-de-lis's topic in General Nursing

    That's rediculous about the C's. I have heard that C's are the new F's. I think this is over-kill. Good luck with what you decide. I guess my point was that the OP needs a pressure release so the 4.0...

    Slightly off topic, but did you know that Phi Beta Kappa doesn't permit any of the 'occupational majors' to join? There are no pre-meds or nursing students in Phi Beta Kappa. You have to have a major...
