  1. Ok.. so.... what state PAYS the best for an RN in your opinion?

    RN1982 replied to Airbrushguy's topic in General Nursing

    Depends on where you live and what the cost of living is in that state. There is no, "this state pays more for an RN". If they do, its probably because the cost of living is

  2. How does this happen??

    RN1982 replied to mustlovepoodles's topic in General Nursing

    Seriously, nursing education needs to be revamped. More clinical, less theory. I don't think it is necessary to learn about several nursing theorists. I can tell you when I am in a critical situation...

    Thanks. I haven't made my appt. yet but I'm feeling a lot better. I worked out last night and went to bed for about 6 hours. I just think I shouldn't let work get to me. It stresses me out when I get...

  4. Just another vent.

    RN1982 replied to RN1982's topic in General Nursing

    True they do need to get in on the problem. The thing is, I have no incident that what happened the other night occured because I gave that stupid piece of paper back. But I was clear in my

  5. Just another vent.

    RN1982 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am really sick and tired of some of the immature and unprofessional behavior that I see when I am at work. Sure, it is ok to have fun and be social but there is a point where it is totally...

  8. Frustratingly Obnoxious People.....*vent*

    RN1982 replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. I remember I confronted classmates who were talking during lecture, they thought there was absolutely nothing wrong with their behavior. People have no freaking manners

  9. Frustratingly Obnoxious People.....*vent*

    RN1982 replied to OhioCCRN's topic in General Nursing

    You will find that even as a nurse some of your co-workers will be frustratingly obnoxious. Prime example was my shift last night. I'm busting my hump with a patient while another nurse and a CNA are...

  10. The Family from Hell

    RN1982 replied to SuesquatchRN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    I know. All she wants is to be left alone. If I was 93, I wouldn't want people poking and prodding at me. There definately needs to be a family meeting set up so things can be laid out for the family...

  11. The Family from Hell

    RN1982 replied to SuesquatchRN's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    If they are concerned about her hair being done, why don't they come in and do it? That could give them some control over something, I guess. Honestly, I don't think you will ever make them happy. At...

    RN1982 replied to DebRN06's topic in General Nursing

    I don't get it. Don't management remember what it was like at bedside, if they were at bedside? I'm sure they wouldn't appreciate the treatment then like we don't appreciate the way they treat us now....

  16. Student nurses do the darndest things

    RN1982 replied to NurseNinaFla's topic in General Nursing

  17. Old IV tubing from HIV patient hooked up to a new patient!

    RN1982 replied to RNStudy's topic in General Nursing

    What does the fact that you are a minority have to do with any of this? I'm sorry, this was a process error, not an individual error. I feel really sorry that you find it necessary to outright blame...

  20. Fired but asked to resign!

    RN1982 replied to RNStudy's topic in General Nursing

    Honestly, I don't care. I am so irritated with the "i'm so pretty they fired me". It's something straight out of Ruby's thread. If you don't like what I have to say, too bad. It's my viewpoint. I...

    RN1982 replied to RNStudy's topic in General Nursing

    No honey, you didn't get fired because you were pretty. You can get that thought right out of your pretty little head. You were fired because you violated the attendance policy. Learn the lesson and...

    RN1982 replied to madwife2002's topic in General Nursing

    Well, lately at work we have a few clicks and these nurses are quite immature and management excuses this behavior because "they are young and immature". So they put a "year in review" in everyone's...
