  1. Offended by Prayer

    I must weigh in here. I believe LPNGUY probably does have this word in his vocabulary. For proof check his home page. He seems to have a good vocabulary and very exact opinions. We must always allow...
  2. Nurses leaving in droves...

    I will consider myself fortunate. I am learning that I am very fortuante indeed! Over the last several days especially I have been on many boards with people complaining about all types of things. I...
  3. Are you ashamed of being a nurse?

    I apologize if my reply seemed snide. I was seriouly asking if you ever worked any other jobs. I also stand by what I said, I am not treated this way and will/would not allow others to treat me this...
  4. Nurses leaving in droves...

    I guess it is all a case of you get back what you give. I still feel Nursing is Nobel. I enjoy my job my co-workers the Pts and have very good report with the physicians. I am not treated poorly by...

  6. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Ok I can respect that and let me just say that I too feel it is important to portray a professional image. I just don't see how my feeling nursing is a calling or someone calling me an Angel can...
  7. Are you ashamed of being a nurse?

    No other occupation seems to put up with it? Have you ever worked any where? Every job in the WORLD has some type of crap they have to put
  8. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    I think a few of the things you mentioned are accurate. I think it took non gay males a while to enter the nursing field D/T the sterotype of all male nurses are gay. This is far from Angelic however...
  9. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Not a big concept at all that is the exact place from which I work. I do see some that seem to work solely for money and appear to be uncaring, I guess I am very fortunate indeed because, I really...
  10. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Again, I apologize for any offense. Reading the posts seem to completely make caring and being selfless seem to be tools. If you are caring and selfless then these are genuine feelings not some act to...
  11. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    your post said "they like to portray the self-less, caring, giver giver giver..........just like the old world nurse was valued for......................BARF, excuse me but, BARF" If this does not...
  12. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    It is called commercialization. You can also get betty boop, which by the way doesn't offend me either, if you look for it you can also get very professional logos portraying nurses as
  13. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Can a good nurse be a selfish, rude, insensitive, uncaring, person? It is my opinion that you must be selfless to some extent in order to care, if we were only self involved then we could not provide...
  14. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Well I guess you got me there, I was an agency nurse for 9 years and work all over Oklahoma and Texas. I see some of the things you mentioned in your post about does this sound familiar but I really...
  15. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Sorry but you are wrong, no rose colored glasses here, there just ins't any of that goofy shite going on where I am. I guess since you are not here then you really can't say, I mean unless perhap you...
  16. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    You must work in a realy strange place...it's not psych is it? N E way as I mentioned this is a non-issue at my place of
  17. Offended by Prayer

    I will take any and all good thoughts prayers and well wishing from any denomination. Including native American which I find to be a very beautiful religion, I was very close to some Native Americans...
  18. A word of encouragement

    Well like I said you guys are our best resource for the future, the numbers predict that by 2015 we will already be 500,000 nurses short of nurses
  19. A word of encouragement

    You are welcome. I sometimes feel that we as veteren nurses may discourage our most valuable and hopeful resource without actually meaning to do so! You the new students and future
  20. is this Fate

    :chuckle
  21. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    Again a calling is not to say that you are volunteering your services, many of the Politicians we see everyday feel they are called upon to serve (Hmmmm Bush?)this doesn't mean they will will do it...
  22. is this Fate

    as I note that you thank God, I wonder as in my case, my service in this profession does seem to give me some feeling of goodness to be helping others and be able to see the help that is measurable in...
  23. is this Fate

    I think thee protest to much (Tweety I threw that thee in for you LOL)as I explained in the other thread I don't see calling as religous, and here you admit fate was in play, and even more you were...
  24. AJN Article Opinions.. "I'm No Angel"

    hmmm, this sounds close to a calling if God influenced you. Of course we have free will and God helps those that help themselves, so all decisions are our own, but influence is another way of saying...
  25. is this Fate

    Well the reason I brought this subject up was because of another thread. https://allnurses.com/forums/showthread.php?t=83150 I'm no Angel. In that thread the issue of a calling was raised. I admited...
