    At what point should I be worried?

    JadedCPN replied to takethisanduseitwell's topic in General Nursing

    While I get your frustration with the situation, I guess I don't understand what "proof" would be acceptable to you? I tend to agree with Ruby Vee on this one

    Would this shirt get me into trouble in class?

    JadedCPN replied to FloridaLPN19's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I suppose it all comes down to what you would define as trouble. As other's have mentioned, that depends on your school and their policies - many schools may say that is not appropriate in the school...

    JadedCPN replied to Seeing Myself Out's topic in General Nursing

    Well that escalated quickly! Yea the most interesting part of your post isn't that you don't love your job or that psych nursing isn't your passion, it is the fact that you feel the need to lie about...

    JadedCPN replied to yourstrulynurse87's topic in General Nursing

    JadedCPN replied to TinyDancer01's topic in General Nursing
