  1. Why Do People Bully Me?

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

    If anyone wants a non confrontational tip for dealing with bullies walking away when they address you or literally turning your back on them and continuing what you were doing seem to work well (if...

  2. Why Do People Bully Me?

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

    I fit the first three descriptions in the article. Couple that with being 21 with a baby face and I was often targeted my first few years as a nurse. I am also a warm and fuzzy give everyone a flower...

  3. Why do we eat our young?

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

    IN MY EXPERIENCE/OPINION: 1. New grads are often a bunch of texting, whining, the- rules-don't -apply-to-me-because-i'm-special, YOU'RE HOW OLD?, entitled, disrepecful, pitas who see nursing as...

  4. What did you get for Christmas?

    Conqueror+ replied to Brian's topic in Nurses Rock

    A VERY overpriced dream bag with matching wallet and fuschia pink beats by Dre headphones

  5. Forced wearing of nursing cap.

    Conqueror+ replied to onetiredstudent's topic in General Students

    To clarify there is a BIG difference between simply disagreeing with or "not getting" a tradition that some hold dear and calling it every degrading name that you can think

  6. Forced wearing of nursing cap.

    Conqueror+ replied to onetiredstudent's topic in General Students

    This a byproduct of nursing becoming a "recession-proof, everybody come on in, afterthought career" there is little to no respect for tradition or the history of the profession. I indeed still have my...

  7. Course changes at WGU starting 1/1/13?

    Conqueror+ replied to LoveToHike's topic in Western Governors University

    I am not talking about the prelicensure program if it makes a difference. I never took algebra but my eval says req satisfied by my ASN. The stats is still

  8. Course changes at WGU starting 1/1/13?

    Conqueror+ replied to LoveToHike's topic in Western Governors University

    UPDATE: There are now 10 nursing classes and nutrition and biochem have been added. Algebra is not required but statistics is. Go

  9. Passed the cpne at grady... :)

    Conqueror+ replied to romstead's topic in Excelsior College

    I remember that feeling and it is awesome. Congrats

    I KNOW you feel 10 feet tall right now. CONGRATS

  11. Old nurse required to get BSN

    Conqueror+ replied to Bellona's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Many programs will take you but you will be treated as a diploma nurse which may mean more classes to take. It will be tough without a transcript though. Contact your BON and see if they can give you...

  12. Should Healthcare Be Funded As A Basic Human Right?

    Conqueror+ replied to jayp's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I didn't say it was wrong I said it was backwards. If their was access to care for everyone I would feel VERY differently about paying taxes for health care services. I choose to opt out of public...

  13. Should Healthcare Be Funded As A Basic Human Right?

    Conqueror+ replied to jayp's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Actually you were not. The poster I WAS referring to addressed my comment

  14. Should Healthcare Be Funded As A Basic Human Right?

    Conqueror+ replied to jayp's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Actually I agree with a paid option and a free/low cost option. I believe in getting more if you work more. I just don't agree with no access for a sick person. I also believe in beggars can't be...

  15. Should Healthcare Be Funded As A Basic Human Right?

    Conqueror+ replied to jayp's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I might agree with people arguing against universal coverage if I didn't have thousands of dollars in income yanked from me each year. I have no children in school but a chunk of my taxes go to public...

  16. Course changes at WGU starting 1/1/13?

    Conqueror+ replied to LoveToHike's topic in Western Governors University

    I just received an updated transcript eval and you are right. Nutrition and biochem are required but now micro is req satisfied by degree. They also renamed two classes and added two 1 credit classes....

  17. Should Healthcare Be Funded As A Basic Human Right?

    Conqueror+ replied to jayp's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    I think that it is selfish and entitled to believe that because YOU have insurance that people who do not should just suck it up or die. A previous poster compared healthcare or an education to cable...

  19. New Grad Quitting After Less Than a Year (advice!)

    Conqueror+ replied to IcySageNurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    How much notice does a facility give you when they fire you ? Keep it in focus and realize that you will probably have many jobs during your nursing career. They days of the loyal employer who rewards...

  20. What is it with nurses and cell phones? Just a vent.

    Conqueror+ replied to fakebee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    This is one of those things I wish I didn't know about. I am so glad I insisted on staying with my son for

  21. What is it with nurses and cell phones? Just a vent.

    Conqueror+ replied to fakebee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Not sure what you guys mean perhaps I am not familiar with something net/techie specific. I meant the patient in room six next to the window vs the pt named Ms

  22. What is it with nurses and cell phones? Just a vent.

    Conqueror+ replied to fakebee's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I have given this topic quite a bit of thought and realized that the nurses who have constant emergencies on their phones are the biggest slackers. I had to tell a nurse the other day that the tech...

  23. Fired for writing a nursing order?

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

    First off I am sorry and believe that it is overkill from the information you have given. My best advice is to fight any discipline from the BON. Most nurses have no idea how an "investigation" works....

  24. "Smart Is The New Rich" Graduate Nurses Cannot Find Work

    Conqueror+ replied to DoGoodThenGo's topic in General Nursing

    I owe you a latte. Actually you owe me one to replace the one I just
