2. Am I getting into nursing for the right reason?

   Conqueror Slothful replied to ZombieMedic123's topic in Men in Nursing

   No, you're not getting into it for the wrong reason. There is no right or wrong reason. Value the actual nursing skills and knowledge, everything else can go in one ear and out the other. If you...

4. The Wage Gap Myth

   Conqueror Slothful replied to car48's topic in Men in Nursing

   Thank you for making that point. Exceptions don't make the rule. The world having always been dominated by men since the beginning of human kind is not a social

5. The Wage Gap Myth

   Conqueror Slothful replied to car48's topic in Men in Nursing

   Consider the possibility that men, in general, possess more traits that are characteristic of what society deems to be a good leader than women. I know that feminism, especially modern feminism, is...

6. Who has kids? How do you balance?

   Conqueror Slothful replied to Darveaux5's topic in General Students

   To the OP: Do what you have to do to support and provide for your family and work backwards from there. However much time you are able to carve out of that to spend with your family while still...

7. New correctional nurse

   Conqueror Slothful replied to nadenka's topic in Correctional

   I am aiming at a correctional nurse position. I would guess that most likely none of the people who have said that about prison nursing have ever worked there and have only ever spoken to people who...

8. You're not a male nurse

   Conqueror Slothful replied to GunnyNurse's topic in Male Nursing Students

   I am definitely a male nurse. I don't think the title holds a negative connotation. I believe that presenting as a masculine male will demand respect and that having a large, physically fit stature...

9. What topics did you struggle with most in nursing school or during your pre-reqs?

   Conqueror Slothful replied to Leslie N.'s topic in General Students

   For pre reqs I would say easily Microbiology. I got an A but it was the hardest earned A of my life. For actual nursing program I would say pharm and dosage exams/questions were the most...

10. Is nursing school REALLY that hard?

    Conqueror Slothful replied to Courtney M's topic in General Students

    Nursing school is difficult, but it isn't too difficult. I've succeeded in more difficult academic environments. I thought that Microbiology as a pre req was harder, although it was significantly...

12. I am a male nursing student - What Did I Get Myself Into?!?!?

    Conqueror Slothful replied to nomadd917's topic in Male Nursing Students

    The question is not "Who earns more per year?" The question is "Who earns more per hour?" We have to compare an equal amount of time worked in order to figure out what the pay comparison is. Show...

13. I messed up, terribly. I failed out of my CA CC nursing program and I'm devastated.

    Conqueror Slothful replied to Throwaway3472's topic in General Students

    You did not fail the program because of ADHD or any other diagnosis. I know this because you got into the program in the first place and in order to do so you had to have been a really good student....

14. I am a male nursing student - What Did I Get Myself Into?!?!?

    Conqueror Slothful replied to nomadd917's topic in Male Nursing Students

    To address the wage gap myth: Female nurses do not earn only 75% of the pay of their male counterparts. Show me the paystubs or I call bluff. I'd say that generally female nurses like to withhold...
