  1. Zoloft...Any Personal or Professional Advice?

    PennyLane replied to nurseygrrl's topic in General Nursing

    I wasn't on Zoloft, but was on Paxil for a while. I didn't gain any weight, but like Jen I had sexual side effects which I couldn't tolerate. That and palpitations and muscle twitches. Oh, and going...

  2. Scheduling question

    PennyLane posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm trying to figure something out here. I'll be graduating in December and starting out as a new grad next January. How hard is it in general to request a certain day off each week? Is this basically...

  3. How soon you will opt for a desk job???

    PennyLane replied to healinghand's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I'm going into nursing to get AWAY from the 9-5 life. I couldn't stand: a) sitting in traffic twice a day, even though my commute was only 4 miles b) always going to the grocery store, pet store,...

  4. How do you pick your clinical assignment?

    PennyLane replied to HyperRNRachel's topic in General Students

    Wow, that would peeve me. At my school you wake up at 6 am on registration day and try and get your first choice--you know the site, the days and times, and sometimes the instructor. However, since...

  5. Scheduling question

    PennyLane replied to PennyLane's topic in General Nursing

    That's what I was thinking Ruby. I could offer to work the Sunday night shift to make up for it. I may call the manager where I'm currently working as a student nurse/tech (and where I want to work...

  7. Denver Area Relocation - Nice Areas and RN Pay

    PennyLane replied to nycNurse2b's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Thanks all! I"m sorry to hear Boulder is more expensive than Denver. I don't quite get the Santa Fe analogy, being an East Coast girl myself, but I've heard rave things about the area. Maybe I'll see...

    PennyLane replied to leslie :-D's topic in Oncology

  11. Accelerated BSN at UMB

    PennyLane replied to vtcaroline's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey Caroline, Good luck on your application. I'm in the accelerated program there right now. I was also concerned about money because I'm a homeowner, I live alone, and I have 3 cats and a dog...I...

  12. nursing school yes or no

    PennyLane replied to rtin05's topic in General Nursing

    If it's your dream, then do it! Religion has nothing to do with nursing. At least not for me. Not any more than religion had anything to do with my decision to work with computers (something I did for...

  13. Shock Trauma hiring?

    PennyLane replied to TraumaInTheSlot's topic in Maryland Nursing

  18. Female Or Male Ob/gyn- Which Do You Prefer?

    PennyLane replied to JUSTYSMOM's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I've only ever visited a female OB/GYN so I can't compare to a man. Personally, I feel more comfortable with a female doctor for both my PCP and my GYN. Also when I was in therapy I chose a female...
