1. Flight gear and tips

   romansten9 replied to jjphoenix's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

   LOL. While you're "looking at lawn mowers at sears," the rest of us are buying essential supplies for the base, such as food, especially when we are at some point within a 14 day shift in which we...

2. Flight gear and tips

   romansten9 replied to jjphoenix's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

   When you're on duty and away from base, you wear generally your flight suit. Thats how it works to be ready when on duty. You "look like a tool" when you are representing the company wearing street...

3. "Fired for NO Reason"

   romansten9 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

   "I still see someone who is trying to blame educators and preceptors for the problems new grads are having. The fact that someone had enough book knowledge to make it through school and pass their...

4. "Fired for NO Reason"

   romansten9 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

   "turnleftside" If you would go back and read what I wrote, I did not say that it is "always" the preceptors/educators fault if a student or new employee isn't trained well. I also said "most" people...

5. "Fired for NO Reason"

   romansten9 replied to Ruby Vee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

   Leslie, I agree with much of what "eriksoln" said. There can be "slow learners" in any profession, but it is the job of educators and preceptors to take the new grad from where they are to where they...

   romansten9 replied to HDNurse's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

   Great Job, you were prepared. I'm a Paramedic with 20 years experience. (more codes than I can remember) I also have a new job as a dialysis RN in a large hospital. We also take care of inpatients...

7. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

   romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

   I did respond to the question directly on page 9. That was the most relevant post I made and I hope it is the one that Loner will focus on out of my posts. Many others here had great info that I hope...

   Diane, I meant that in nature the weak are often the easiest

9. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

   romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

   Absolutely13, If you think that ridicule will somehow make me respond in anger, it won't work. I refuse to speak to any of you in the tone of rage you have used against me. You claim I haven't used...

10. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

    Stanley, Well, you got one last blow in right as I am about to exit. No need to continue the onslaught against me, as I will not be here to read it. Someone told me once to not apologize when you...

11. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

    I agree that I'm not perfect, I said so in my earlier posts. As far as how I sound to an atheist, I have no idea. I only know that from 20 years of talking with people of nearly all religions (and...

12. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

    Loner, I did try to offer some advice about your question about prayer in an earlier post. Your attacks on my Christianity tell me that this is really an issue for you. It may be very difficult for...

13. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

    loner, i said in a previous post that i wouldn't attack or ridicule atheists. its unfortunate that you couldn't do the same for me. perhaps that is a difference in us because of what we believe....

14. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

    Loner, I stated earlier that I didn't have an answer for you. After giving it more thought I think I can relate. Although I am a Christian, I would be uncomfortable praying to another "god" since...

15. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    romansten9 replied to CalicoKitty's topic in General Students

    HvnSntRN, Sorry to hear about your experiences. I would probably be an atheist too if that was the type of Christian I had exposure to. That's terrible. As I said in my previous post, you have every...
