    Think I've Done All I Can for This Person?

    Well, she just turned 22. I doubt it's a perimenopausal thing. It's hard to tell what it is, considering she has the same reply, won't open up, won't go to the counselor. "Sin Wagon" is from the...

    I have a severe migraine. Ideas, please?

    Get an eye exam, to make sure this isn't caused by vision changes. That was what triggered a lot of mine. I have a bag of dried lavander that i sniff whenever i feel one of these coming on (after i...

    Co-workers shoes/feet

    I had to go into work for an hour, and was reminded of a problem at work. In our lockeroom, everyone's got a pair of shoes. One particular pair is beyond rank. So are the feet they belong to,...

    Co-workers shoes/feet

    I remember a thread i had about a year ago about the Danskos i used to wear smelling, a suggestion i got was to put them in the freezer. I'll ask the supervisor about a sign about

    Think I've Done All I Can for This Person?

    well, they do, if it's people that's been there awhile, who still don't know what they are doing. i've gotten a couple of "this is getting old" looks from docs after their 3rd time of asking her for...

    I Wish I'd Said That!

    I wouldn't either. She's obviously trying to have an effect on you, don't give her the satisfaction of letting her do

    Think I've Done All I Can for This Person?

    Well, that's what what's going to happen, since that's part of the evaluation. The meeting's scheduled, just hasn't happened

    Co-workers shoes/feet

    I have Crocs, too, but they wind up stinking too. I put small bags of baking soda in them every evening before going home. (The shoes she had are those plastic Birkies. I'm waiting for them to start...

    hello kitty scrubs

    I can agree with this. When i've gone to the peds floor to get peds pts. wearing my SpngeBob, Clifford, or Bob the Builder hats, kids are actually happy to see me. Spiderman and Stitch are huge hits,...

    Think I've Done All I Can for This Person?

    We have Outpatient, staffing wise, everyone works everywhere, but the goal for every new trainee is for them to be able to scrub on any cases from lumps and bumps, to

    Think I've Done All I Can for This Person?

    Gastric bypass has the same effect. It wouldn't be really fair to others if she's only assigned to certain cases just because she's emotional. Not to mention a year from now when she (would) start...
