I just read a post on how hospitals send out advertisements that they are hiring, but then when people call, the hospital just plays dumb and says there are no positions available. Has anyone ever Not been able to get a job out of school. I know ther...

How do you deal with someone who has no interest in anything or anyone but theirself? I mean this guy I work with will only talk about something HE does or has or whatever... The first day I met him he told me that he was "in the top 5 percent of the...

Thank you all for your responses and Thank you llg for your very direct and informative response. I am still looking for a nursing school to get into but I wanted to make sure that I was not going into this with any misunderstanding of the job market...

Is there something we can do to report these kind of practices? I wonder if the Department of Labor would regulate this so that these hospitals could not "false advertise" their ghost positions. How is a person supposed to get a job with stuff like t...

I never really have this problem... people usually start to look at me funny when they first see me pick my nose or my wedgie. I don't know what's up with them? but other than that I just try to be friendly and polite and not burp when someone else i...

Hi all, What are some books that you all would reccomend to someone who is trying to get familiarized with the things they teach in nursing school? I'm aiming for fall 2004 to start a nursing program so I have about a year to prepare and I'm thinking...

thanks to all of you for your replys and thanks for the links celeste. I bought "anatomy and physiology the easy way" and websters medical dictionary today... it's pretty interesting to know how they come up with all the medical terms by using old la...

twarlik, I already have bio, chem, and algebra from High school (5 years ago) and that is all that the schools are asking for for admissions so I don't think I will have to take any pre-reqs I am going to find this out for sure of course but I have t...

Of all the humor posts I've read today, this one made me pee my pants the most :roll It's like walking into a restaraunt and forgetting to open the glass door humor. I love it

It sounds like she is able to retain all the information she is given she just needs some experience to help her when choosing between the more correct of two answers. Maybe she should do some volunteering/shadowing or become a part-time CNA so that ...

I'm looking for a hospital to volunteer at too. I looked up my local hospital on the www and asked them for info and they sent me a whole packet of volunteering info, including what positions are available.

Dave, I know you've heard your earfull by now and you might have even stopped paying attention to this post because of embarrasment over such bad judgement to post it in the first place. I just want to say: have you ever seen a fish hanging on a wal...

Thank you all for your responses to the "How did you pick your school" thread, I greatly appreciate them and am learning a lot about the opportunities that are out there. I am now also wondering how you are supporting yourself through school? I know ...

I think I finally found the school I want to go to. It is associated with the hospital that I want to work at too!!! I am so excited and so nervous... The admissions process seems to be spelled out pretty well but I am sensing a challenge (get refera...

I agree with all of you... I don't know why people put others down... especially counsleors and advisors (maybe they have seen so many people go on to do great things that they can't take it any more and just want to discourage others from becomming ...

You know what... I think about as highly of school counselor/advisors as I do of lawyers or the media. My gf went to one of those high schools where everyone goes to Harvard or Yale after they graduate. She is not from the US but still did very well ...

Hi all, I was wondering if you all could give some opinions on how to pick the best nursing school? Things to look for and look out for. Why did you pick the school you are going to/went to? I don't know anything right now except that I want to be a ...

Hi all, I am wondering if I should attend school in the state where I want to work or is it easy enough to go to school in one state and then get licensed in another? I currently live in VA (for the past 2 years) and I want to work in PA (where I gre...
