  1. I Love Night Shift

    Conqueror+ replied to NurseOnAMotorcycle's topic in General Nursing

    I must mention all of the awesome food that tends to show up at night where I work and you have fewer people to share it with. I also love playing my pandora (at a reasonable volume of course) at the...

  2. I'm a nurse and I don't like people.

    Conqueror+ replied to addylpn's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I feel ya. I actually prefer books and music to people any day. If you ask my coworkers they would say that I prefer people and am a social butterfly. I adapted that way because I found that it...

  3. Calling a transgender patient an "it"

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I was referring to an earlier post that said that. Not my personal opinion just me responding to an earlier post that stated name calling was why TG people kill

  4. Nurses with ear piercings

    Conqueror+ replied to hshuang's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I did.

  5. Crazy clinicals instructor doesn't like us using the restroom?

    Conqueror+ replied to JESSICAAA159's topic in General Students

    The first thing that came to my mind were the students rotating through our facility. They were constantly on their phones until the CI banned them from using them. Their brilliant solution? "well she...

  6. Calling a transgender patient an "it"

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I read in some earlier post that a TG person would be "devastated" if called it and that this is why TG people kill themselves. I believe that it is extremely telling if your joy and even your sanity...

  7. Black Humour

    Conqueror+ replied to Tenebrae's topic in Nursing Humor

    All I kept thinking was this is what happens when you don't eat. You don't even have enough energy to stay on your

  8. Can we just agree, being honest is not akin to being "rude"?

    Conqueror+ replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in General Nursing

    I never said that people are not human. I simply meant that some people are considerate and kind by nature and don't go around being rude on a daily basis. There's a difference between occasional...

  9. Can we just agree, being honest is not akin to being "rude"?

    Conqueror+ replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in General Nursing

    Some people are kind and respectful at all times. No fakery

  10. Calling a transgender patient an "it"

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I may have misunderstood your point but elective surgery is most certainly a choice. No one is kidnapping you and forcing you to have your bits and pieces revised. Cancer is not a choice. Big...

  11. Calling a transgender patient an "it"

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I am a nurse meaning that I am not a socio political being at work so I do not take either side on an issue at work. I am not concerned with supporting a patients personal choices but giving them the...

  12. Calling a transgender patient an "it"

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I should clarify that I would simply refer to the patient I described above as Edward Smith or Room

  13. Calling a transgender patient an "it"

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't get calling any patient an it. While I don't think I would refer to someone with a member and Edward on their drivers license as she in report, I wouldn't refer to them as an inanimate object....

  14. Can we just agree, being honest is not akin to being "rude"?

    Conqueror+ replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in General Nursing

    As I read through all of the responses I realize that there are some posters who consistently come across as rude. I don't mean a comment taken the wrong way by some pre-nursing loon(see) but thread...

  15. Can we just agree, being honest is not akin to being "rude"?

    Conqueror+ replied to SmilingBluEyes's topic in General Nursing

    I love me some AllNurses but ya'll can be rude as all get out sometimes. So can my mother and siblings but I love them no less. Takeaway: No relationship is perfect and as long as the pleasure...

  16. Higher Calling

    Conqueror+ replied to guest449786's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I think like many professions nursing CAN be a calling in the sense that you feel like you were born to do it or would do it for free. Do you have to feel called to be a good nurse? I don't think so....

  17. I hate night shift

    Conqueror+ replied to Wrangler156's topic in General Nursing

    There is nothing unhealthy about missing your husband because you barely see him. I have been married for 15 years, have 2 children, and still cry sometimes at night when I have to leave them to work...

  18. Oldest practicing Nurse?

    Conqueror+ replied to RN&mom's topic in General Nursing

    I had a supervisor that was 83 and took the stairs in our three story building when she did her

  19. Black Humour

    Conqueror+ replied to Tenebrae's topic in Nursing Humor

    OK there is Type 2 diabetes on BOTH sides of my family and BOTH sides of my husbands family. There are many missing limbs from our family trees and this is still funny as all get out. You want that...

  20. Black Humour

    Conqueror+ replied to Tenebrae's topic in Nursing Humor

    I work hospice including peds and I'll take any kind of humor someone brings. I had a patient die and during post mortem care "only the good die young" by Billy Joel would NOT leave my head. Fighting...

  21. Comfortable shoes?

    Conqueror+ replied to Chickie77's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    New Balance. If you go to a NB store they will stand you on the machine, scan you, and recommend a few pair for you. I do great for 12 hours despite plantar fasciitis and a stress

  22. Nursing Specialties with a Slower Pace and Less Patient/Family Interaction

    Conqueror+ replied to Soliloquy's topic in General Nursing

    Hospice in home care with one patient sure. I work inpatient hospice and have some 12 hour shifts that barely leave time for a potty break and I am well

  23. Want to be a nurse, just no butt wiping or other yucky stuff please

    Conqueror+ replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I'll put on a pot of cheese grits and make some

  24. How to NOT Aid a Cheater?

    Conqueror+ replied to Angeljho's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This was a bad idea but they cannot retroactively take his MSN from him. The cheating is on the part of the student who submits someone else's work as their own. That is why test taking and paper...

  25. Want to be a nurse, just no butt wiping or other yucky stuff please

    Conqueror+ replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Haven't you been reading this thread ? As a seasoned nurse I am eating my young as we
