  1. Testicular torsion

    58flyer replied to Joni's Mom's topic in Ob/Gyn

    First let me say that I am no expert on this subject which is to say that I might not know what I'm talking about. I'm just going to pass along what my doctor told me as I understood it since I have a...

  2. Heart Attack Grill (20/20 ABC show)

    58flyer replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in General Nursing

    It's been a long time ago but Hooters did go through a court battle over the hiring of only females as servers. Hooters went public with it and I can still remember the billboard ads with the image of...

  3. Heart Attack Grill (20/20 ABC show)

    58flyer replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in General Nursing

    OK, glad you clarified that. Too bad they misquoted you, that's just bad journalism. Good luck trying to get them to print a

  4. Heart Attack Grill (20/20 ABC show)

    58flyer replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Sandy, You are on record as saying "move these fantasies to other professions." What other professions would you like those fantasies moved to? Don't get me wrong, I agree with your position as it...

  5. flight positions

    58flyer replied to UtErRnEmt's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    I wasn't going to add any more to this thread but I came across some new data. I just received the current edition of Air Beat magazine, the official journal of the Airborne Law Enforcement...

    58flyer replied to UtErRnEmt's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    OK, let's leave it at that. Have a nice

  7. flight positions

    58flyer replied to UtErRnEmt's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    You have already provided the answer for us. In the Slack & Davis article you linked earlier: 55 EMS aircraft accidents- 41 were helicopter and 14 were airplane. 39 fatalities/13 serious injuries...

  8. please pray for me...

    58flyer replied to LanaBanana's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    My thoughts and prayers are with you. Take care of yourself. May the repairs to your home go well and I pray that your life gets back to normal soon.

  9. Write-Ups & Disciplinary Action

    58flyer replied to TheCommuter's topic in General Nursing

    Being written up is a bitter pill, especially if it's for a chicken poop reason. I've had to swallow a few of those bitter pills over the years. Hugs to you, you will get through it.

  10. flight positions

    58flyer replied to UtErRnEmt's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    I know what you said about NVGs. The point I was trying to make about NVGs and EMS is that EMS, for whatever reason, has been slow to get the ball rolling with NVGs. I know a fair number of EMS...

  11. flight positions

    58flyer replied to UtErRnEmt's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    Shamira and Teila, I can see both sides of the discussion. As a pilot (comm-instrument, airplane and helo) I do agree that flying is safer than driving. You are more likely to be injured or killed...

  12. The Great Double Standard?

    58flyer replied to Doog's topic in Men in Nursing

    :yeahthat: Excellent

  13. Has this happened to anyone else?

    58flyer replied to allthingsbright's topic in General Nursing

    A few years ago I had an MRI on the left shoulder. I knew I was slightly claustrophobic but I didn't think it would be that bad. Once in the tube my head was in a space that was larger than the rest...

  14. what did you do in your former life?

    58flyer replied to 3rdgenRN2B's topic in General Nursing

    Some of this brings back memories, especially the modelling stuff. My first job in HS was pumping gas in airplanes at the local airport. I had a GF who was a model and led me into the business. So I...

  15. The Great Double Standard?

    58flyer replied to Doog's topic in Men in Nursing

    This is exactly why I dropped out of nursing school almost 30 years ago and went into law enforcement. There was one other guy in my class and we were told that females would be "off limits." When it...

  16. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    pyro, sounds like you found a home! I spent most of my life in NE Fla. After changing careers, I went to Sarasota. Lived near Myakka State Park. Worked out of the Venice airport. I was reassigned...

  17. Discrimination...You think??!!?!

    58flyer replied to Jamie Dale's topic in Men in Nursing

    finman, I don't think this is the way to deal with this issue. Accepting or ignoring discrimination will not stop it. You can only achieve positive results by tackling it head-on. I say make those...

  18. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    Some of the places you mentioned, like Cecil Field, Baldwin, Gregory drive elementary, all bring back memories. My first murder arrest as a city policeman was for a suspect who did the deed at...

  19. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    dona4jc, I am happy you found a good home in Jax. We always referred to the Westside as the Bestside. I had many Filipino friends growing up. This may be due to Jax being a Navy town, as many Navy...

  20. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well said Caroladybelle. I have noticed that sometimes the display of the Confederate flag is by people who do it just to offend/intimidate/disrespect others. They have no Southern/Confederate...

  21. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    All I can say is that Jax is in part of the Bible Belt. Ultraconservative views of Biblical teaching and doctrine are to be expected. The Lord has led me to where He wants me to be in my Christian...

  22. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    Personally, I LOVE Jacksonville. I was conceived and raised there. Born in Georgia, but that's another story . Pardon my bias. Maybe if you live on the Westside or Northside I can understand how you...

  23. Best Florida city?

    58flyer replied to lmolvr's topic in Florida Nursing

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news but there is nowhere you can go in the USA and not see right wing conservatives, religious zealots, pickup trucks, or Confederate flags. We happen to live in the...

  24. Male Nurses/female Patients

    58flyer replied to ern91's topic in Men in Nursing

    Of course the same "policy" also requires that a male housekeeper must accompany a female housekeeper when she goes into a male patient's room right? Yea, right! I already know the answer to
