    RNRutRO replied to Spookshowbaby's topic in Texas Nursing

    Sib5- Was it a drug that you can get over the counter? If so, I don't see what the problem was. Might want to get an attorney who is has knowledge about the specifics in TEXAS about your situation....

  7. TPAPN:a Four Letter Word?

    RNRutRO replied to 1964RNfromTX's topic in Texas Nursing

  9. Life-Long Dream to Become a Nurse!

    RNRutRO replied to Vickie77's topic in Texas Nursing

  12. TPAPN:a Four Letter Word?

    RNRutRO replied to 1964RNfromTX's topic in Texas Nursing

    Well Knoodsen, I guess you are right. Our profession has very low standards if it has a nurse who has NO compassion and makes such a "general" comment. :madface:What a dumba** thing to say! Are you...

    RNRutRO replied to joy1181's topic in Texas Nursing

    IF you smoke, they have what they call a "smoke free campus" and they mean it!! With the belief that they are there to promote health, and smoking is NOT healthy. Which, I agree. It's like Nazi...
