    Help with interview outfit

    klone replied to lrobinson5's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Was I right, wrong, or am I going crazy

    klone replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I just reread the OP, and I'm still laughing out loud. Particularly at this paragraph: Yeah, I bet it might happen again in, oh, 10-15 hours from now? It reminds me so much of an Onion article I...

    klone replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    My husband keeps looking at me askance over his morning coffee. I've laughed out loud 3 or 4 times while reading this thread. Nursingaround, you really are something. Not sure what, but something,...

    OP, I think you have great insight into your behavior. That is the first step. I am curious why you decided on nursing, but that's neither here nor there. I used to be a lot like you, I think....

    No, you really really don't. I don't accept any pledge that involves G-d. And I haven't failed at nursing. Sorry to be serial posting, but my brain is actually wanting to explode at the posts I'm...

    How much starting knowledge do I need?

    klone replied to A_Flood87's topic in Ob/Gyn
