    Oz2 replied to pinkiepie_RN's topic in General Students

  10. Choosing NS or another baby, or both?

    Oz2 replied to scastillo1's topic in General Nursing

    What does your hubby think, scastillo1? If you do both, he'll have to carry a large part of the baby load I would think (excuse the pun..lol). Do you think he is willing/able to help you as much as...

    Oz2 replied to RN2Bn2006's topic in General Nursing

    Now he's being compared to a man who beats his wife? I feel I should clarify...I'm not suggesting you just put up with this all the time and I'm not making excuses for him. It's just that up to now...

  17. Got my 1st butt chewing today - humiliating!

    Oz2 replied to RN2Bn2006's topic in General Nursing

    I agree totally. I think he knows he was a jerk. He thanked you for helping him, which shows he values you. And he made an excuse for yelling at you..."I just needed you to really get this one going"...

    Oz2 replied to bethin's topic in General Nursing

    I'll tell you a scary story... My friend told me that her nurse friend told her that you don't actually have to wash your hands....you just have to rub them together vigorously and the heat kills the...
