  1. Black Humour

    FlyingScot replied to Tenebrae's topic in Nursing Humor

    Has anyone else noticed how easy it is to change the words to "'Twas The Night Before Christmas" to suit your unit? We had an epic one for our peds/neo transport team. I don't remember the entire...

  2. Black Humour

    FlyingScot replied to Tenebrae's topic in Nursing Humor

    There is judging and then there is being judgemental. That's an entirely different

  3. Mispronunciations That Drive You Nuts

    FlyingScot replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Press and hold the letter you want to put an accent character over and options will pop up. C'est plus

  4. So Sick Of This Nurses Eat The Young Crap

    FlyingScot replied to annmariern's topic in General Nursing

    I find humping their leg is more effective and less messy.

  5. Flight Nursing: Behind the fancy helicopter

    FlyingScot replied to Jamiejill7's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    Night Vision

  6. When group bullying expands from classmates to teachers and administration

    FlyingScot replied to who knows's topic in General Students

    I don't understand, why wouldn't you just clarify what you meant instead of sitting back and watching what happens as a result of your confusing

  7. Physicians Arriving at office late

    FlyingScot replied to Oedgar's topic in Ambulatory Care, Clinic

    I once had a doc accuse me, in front of God and everybody else, of not being able to multi-task and causing the clinic to be running behind by 2 hours. I suggested, just as publicly, that perhaps the...

  8. Pearson VUE trick?

    FlyingScot replied to catmom713's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Here are a few of the HUNDREDS of threads asking the same question. In fact we have an entire forum dedicated to NCLEX questions. If this isn't enough information I encourage you to click on the...

  9. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    Trust me I've done my research and belong to a forum of car enthusiasts that has thoroughly discussed this. I have an in depth understanding of what's going on. Yes there are some Foresters that have...

  10. I lack social skills and confidence. Is nursing a possibility for me?

    FlyingScot replied to DerAustin's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I may be feeling a little intolerant but doesn't anyone else find the phrase "wiping butt" or "wiping a--" completely offensive? I don't wipe butts, I clean my incontinent patients. I just find the...

  11. Ask for advice (then explain why it's wrong)

    FlyingScot replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I think the pile-ons occur most of the time when people who screwed up come here to rant and whine about how unfaaaiiiirrr it was for them to be disciplined/fired. They take no responsibility for...

  12. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    I did too but she apparently came to her senses. It is fun to dream

  13. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    How often are you adding oil? More than the usual for a boxer engine? Subaru considers it burning oil if it's more than a quart every 1200 miles I think. And I agree, unless you are adding oil every...

  14. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    Well, that's a stretch. A FWD vehicle with a good set of snow tires can be just as good as an AWD vehicle in some situations, and might actually be better than an AWD with crap all-season tires, but...

  15. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    And this was a VERY grown up decision!!!!! Good job

  16. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    The problem was with some of the 2014's. They discovered the problem (bad rings), they fixed the problem. No car is perfect. There are always going to be some that have issues. The majority of...

  17. AWD vehicle for nurses

    FlyingScot replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in General Nursing

    Actually not true. There were a small number that had this problem and they have figured it out. I have a Forester and it does NOT burn

  18. Flight Nursing: Behind the fancy helicopter

    FlyingScot replied to Jamiejill7's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    When you write something under the guise of being an article the expectation is the information you present is accurate. Nobody expects you to approach it as research but at minimum you should get...

  19. Pearson Vue Trick

    FlyingScot replied to Aekram's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Regardless of the fact that you have not read it it has happened.

  20. Pearson Vue Trick

    FlyingScot replied to Aekram's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Yes!!

  21. Flight Nursing: Behind the fancy helicopter

    FlyingScot replied to Jamiejill7's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    Yeah right, no ego at all.

  22. Flight Nursing: Behind the fancy helicopter

    FlyingScot replied to Jamiejill7's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    When you accuse me of being negative, call me burned out and say I'm a detriment to my crew and the patient then yes that IS a personal attack. I have been in this business a long time. I've seen the...

  23. Flight Nursing: Behind the fancy helicopter

    FlyingScot replied to Jamiejill7's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    That's the biggest bunch of BS I've seen in a long while. Are YOU a flight nurse? The OP is an LVN with one year of experience in a nursing home. She doesn't have a clue what being a flight nurse is....

  24. Help! I look young!

    FlyingScot replied to hella_RN's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    And he apologized for it a few posts

  25. Flight Nursing: Behind the fancy helicopter

    FlyingScot replied to Jamiejill7's topic in Flight, Surface Transport

    I've responded to and deleted my response to this article three times now. I'm trying to figure out how to correct some really big errors without sounding snarky and I really don't want to tinkle in...
