    No She/he Did Not!!!

    chevyv replied to Maggie in NC's topic in General Students

    Dilemma!!!!!!

    chevyv replied to josinda421's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Mistake?

    chevyv replied to shy_wolf101's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I have to agree with the other posters. You have found what so many people go their whole lives only wishing for. Stay where you are and be happy. The pay may be better, but you sure won't be...

    chevyv replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm happy that you have your house to yourself. I know it must be difficult for you to hear so much advice telling you what you should be doing. Relationships are not often 50/50 at all times. I...

    chevyv replied to Cupcake619's topic in First Year After Licensure

    When I first started ns, we were told to always make sure the school is accredited (although I can't recall why). I guess I wasn't much of a help. It seems important for some reason though. I guess...

    Pregnancy discrimination

    chevyv replied to beachlilie's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I simply meant that a don't ask, don't tell type of thinking should be applied here. Yes, a pregnant woman will take a leave, but it's not right to refuse to hire solely based on a pregnancy. I...

    Weight Lifting RN's

    chevyv replied to Bo Shoi Ming's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Bo, don't you dare give up nursing because of this. Honestly, how many nurses can safely lift 100#? The average person will not be able to do this. I agree that hoisting them up in bed with a...

    Pregnancy discrimination

    chevyv replied to beachlilie's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Consider not telling your next potential employer that your pregnant. That would be like telling them that your gay (not exactly, but I hope you get it). Think of how many more won't hire you...
