  1. Retire by 30, thanks nursing!

    treysdaddy08 replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    SAVE 4,000 a month. If the OP is correct in stating that his living expenses will only be 2500 a month, that means that he needs to make (after taxes) 6500 a month. Which means you need to TAKE HOME...

  2. Retire by 30, thanks nursing!

    treysdaddy08 replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    and to the op, don't forget, the more you make, the more you get taxed. Also depending on where you live. Getting taxed in NY making 80k a year is far different than getting taxed in WA (no state tax)...

    treysdaddy08 replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    where are you getting your stats from? You have the opinion that lawsuits aren't very common, but what's your

  4. Retire by 30, thanks nursing!

    treysdaddy08 replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    Quote from the head of the OB department in a town of about 18k people "If you work here for 5 years and haven't been subpeoned yet, you're in the vast minority". My friend has been working there 7...

  5. Retire by 30, thanks nursing!

    treysdaddy08 replied to ThePrestige's topic in General Nursing

    Honestly if you're 21 and want to be a travel nurse, I would suggest going for your BSN and going into the military at age 23. After 20 years you retire with 50% of your income, up to 75% at 30 years....

  6. Spokane

    treysdaddy08 replied to MSRF26's topic in Washington Nursing

    The points system is utilized at both SCC and BBCC. It is where they give a certain number of points based on your gpa in the pre-requisite classes (eg a 4.0 in psych 101 is 20 points), and then the...

  7. Spokane

    treysdaddy08 replied to MSRF26's topic in Washington Nursing

    I'm going to BBCC in Moses Lake. I've heard it's easier to get into than SCC, and there's no waiting list. If it's an option, I would highly suggest applying here. FYI, we have 100% pass rate on our...

  8. Guys, how should I handle this?

    treysdaddy08 replied to jov's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I guarantee if that happened in our school, the person would be either put on probation or immediately asked to leave the program. It could be viewed as sexual harrassment, and needs to be handled as...

  9. Registered Nurse bring home pay (after malpractice, etc)

    treysdaddy08 replied to WorriedStudent's topic in General Nursing

    if you don't mind my asking, how much per hour do you make, and do you have state taxes? I live in Wa state and we dont have a state tax. also, do you get the 8 hr of OT every

  11. EEK! There's a MAN in my room!

    treysdaddy08 replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    but the problem I (and other posters, I believe) have is, why are they feminine traits? To say that they are 'feminine' traits is to imply that they aren't masculine traits, and that IS sexist....

  12. EEK! There's a MAN in my room!

    treysdaddy08 replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    actually, you did say that...here is your quote directly... "If a woman has psyc issues over having been raped or something similar where she had good reason to be extremely uncomfortable with a male...

  13. EEK! There's a MAN in my room!

    treysdaddy08 replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    agnus, I'm not sure you noticed, but his original quote, he was actually quoting someone else's statement. The biblical quote was just to show her where he thought she was going wrong (the fact that...

  14. CVA(Basal Ganglion Infarction)

    treysdaddy08 replied to snursee2b's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    "easy" care plans to write are self-care deficits (: inability to feed/bathe/transfer self r/t L sided weakness secondary to CVA), I would try one of those. Also, 6'2 and 132 lbs, I would wonder if...

  15. EEK! There's a MAN in my room!

    treysdaddy08 replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    So if I understand you correctly, the right for the pt to feel comfortable no longer applies? If the pt is in urgent care and has a male RN, and just says "I don't want a male RN, I'm uncomfortable...

  16. EEK! There's a MAN in my room!

    treysdaddy08 replied to abooker's topic in General Nursing

    I actually disagree with the OP. I'm a male, and perhaps that's why, but I believe it's a matter of dignity, not sexism, that most patients don't want male nurses. A person doesn't want an...

  17. Will you work during a Pandemic?

    treysdaddy08 replied to Goju's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Eventually I plan on being prepared for such a disaster. Currently I am a student and cannot afford that :). Being prepared would include having my own PPE, and if that were the case, I absolutely...

  18. OMG.Do Nursing students really practice on eachother??

    treysdaddy08 replied to AspiringNurse7's topic in General Nursing

    In our school we have a choice. If you don't want to be stuck (with needles), then you can decline. HOWEVER if you decline you can't stick one of your classmates with a needle, either (fair is fair)....

  19. Gay labeling, is it just plain mean? Or sexual harrassment?

    treysdaddy08 replied to CaLLaCoDe's topic in Men in Nursing

    I believe that is the reason right there, and that's not selective to just women. If a beautiful woman passes a construction site, what do you "expect" will happen. Most likely some vulgar language...

  20. working as a nurse for the army

    treysdaddy08 replied to HEXOCHUXA's topic in General Nursing

    bump.

  21. husband begrudgingly supportive

    treysdaddy08 replied to RN_Pursuit2b's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a guy, and I'll tell you what I would do... I'd ***** slap his @$$! No joke! If nursing is your dream then you should go for it, and let no one stand in your way! If he really was your 'best...

  22. Graduating in Nursing from an all female college

    treysdaddy08 replied to neenja's topic in Male Nursing Students

    would you go to an all female college with a mixed class, or a mixed college with probably just as few (or less) men in the program. Personally I'd rather be surrounded by a bunch of

  23. Discussing grades with classmates?

    treysdaddy08 replied to OgopogoLPN's topic in General Students

    I usually just answer "I did well" or, "I passed" because like other posters I don't want to seem like Im bragging if I did well. If you just leave it vague then you don't come off as

    There currently is no immunization for Hep

  25. Condom Teaching Plan for Middle Schoolers?

    treysdaddy08 replied to cjulian214's topic in General Students

    To be honest I wouldn't teach it. If they required it for school I would say "With all respect I would rather fail that day then teach a 12 year old about sex". I am in school and I GUARANTEE I will...
