    kakamegamama replied to KatieMI's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Yowzers! I'm glad you got that bag and are doing much better! Good luck with the criminal case. It sounds like it will take that to wake both the girl and her parents up. I kinda actually feel sorry...

  9. Witchcraft Resurgence

    kakamegamama replied to HelpfulNatureHopeful's topic in General Nursing

  10. Witchcraft Resurgence

    kakamegamama replied to HelpfulNatureHopeful's topic in General Nursing

  15. Everyone is white?

    kakamegamama replied to eacue's topic in General Nursing

    If you were hired, how is there discrimination? Just because a group of people are of a majority race/color, it doesn't mean discrimination. It could mean they are the best qualified for their...

  16. Resign first or wait until I find out if I'm fired?

    kakamegamama replied to FallingInPlace's topic in General Nursing

    In some states you cannot receive unemployment if you quit. So, take that into account. Don't assume the worst, if you have no disciplinary actions , such as verbal or written warnings, in your file....

  17. Any regrets becoming a NP?

    kakamegamama replied to DesertSky's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    kakamegamama replied to Marie63's topic in General Nursing

    Marie, you are doing the right thing now, and have done so with contacting the CEO/Chief Medical Officer. Ease up on yourself, just as you would want someone else to forgive you. You are taking the...

    kakamegamama replied to poliwag48's topic in General Students
