I'm sure you might get arrogance anywhere you go. RN's work hard at getting to that level and I'm sure resent an LVN with less schooling to be doing the same job. However, if the RN you mentioned...
I am about to start nursing school and a good friend of mine said her sister went to LVN school and could only make 9 per hour and decided to quit being an LVN. I told her that hourly rate sounded...
I'm going off what my other RN friends say as well. They feel there is power in white as well. What I think is odd is that the elderly nurses on this thread think there is power in white and some...
My sister was an Opthamology Tech in Sacramento and really liked it despite her crazy manager. Her friends who were RN's really loved their job but Kaiser is notorious for poor

And QJ, thanks for allowing me a place in the nursing world. It does take all kinds and I'm pretty rare:) I think feminism is a great thing, but when it comes to emasulating men in spite of feminism,...

Good enough. It's the scrubs that look unprofessional and sloppy and anything unisex to me is sheman material. Not that the nurse is a sheman herself. Remember Saturday Night Live, Pat? Scrubs...

Of course it's sexist. I can't change men and most are in their weakest moment if they are not behaving. And when are sick people at their best? You can google it. I think my search words were, can...
oh i get it ruby, more than you you know. for some reason those who are conservative and like tradition threatens you. my opinion counts as a patient as well as a to-be nurse. my good friends who...
Are you not serving a patient by helping them get better? Are you not helping or serving a doctor by following his orders? I attend hospitals where a good % of the nurses are nun's. They do have an...

Again, your taking it too personal. If a man is spry enough to whistle that means he's feeling better and should be going home soon. I don't take it personal. I doubt a whistling man would be dying...

I can see there were many assumptions made about my post. I was going to be a nun 6 years ago and so I wear A line skirts ONLY. My father loves women looking like women. Actually he makes the nuns...

Even in the most messiest of circumstances a woman can still be feminine even if the job isn't. I just came from 16 years of engineering working with all men and that is NOT feminine. However, we all...
