   NICUdude replied to AZO49008's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

   This thread is like that game "telephone." By the end of the circle, appropriate attire has become text-speak for the abbreviation-challenged. (I'm not only the President of Folks Without iPhones, I'm...

   Hey, I was wrong, the emoticons ARE at my disposal. Not sure why the post icons will not load. They show up on the post preview, but not the finished post. Hmm. How many S&H green stamps does it...

   Said the fly: "Waiter, there is a person eating my soup!" It is all about perspective. People who have weighed in on this rolling snowball have likely not read all gazillion of the previous posts. If...

   OMG, I love where this has been, where it is, and where it may go. I just read the funniest statement of all the posts I have perused, and since I am not savvy to the proper way to quote y'all, I cut...

   *****, If I actually had one! For the record, I have no butt, and an ACL reconstruction using a slice from the center of my patellar tendon has made me seek any knee-friendly footwear I can find....

   Friends we are! The Skechers made me walk like I had a stick you know where at first, but after a full shift, I was fine. I fancy myself fit enough to have disregarded the recommended "no more than...

   "OK I give up. You're right. I'm sure Florence will agree that you should be able to wear whatever you want to work, especially in NICU. If there's anyplace to make a stand for freedom of fashion...

    Tweety tops, and Smiley ties, and snarky tangents, oh MY! Where will it end? No where, and never are the answers. Critical thinkers unite! I wonder if Florence ever envisioned such nonsense when...

    NICUdude replied to mikethemurse's topic in Nursing Humor

13. Top 10 Myths of the "MURSE"

    NICUdude replied to mikethemurse's topic in Nursing Humor

    I had not heard or seen the term "Murse" before today. The humor is great. The real deal, as I see things, is that not many care. Granted, my patients care that I feed, burp, and change their...

    NICUdude replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Students

    I am 48, with 3 grandchildren. I am starting my last semester in three weeks. I worked seven years on my prerequisites, one class a semester, while working full time until I could apply to my nursing...

    NICUdude replied to frellyou's topic in General Nursing

    A few years ago I needed a lung biopsy to confirm that I had (have) sarcoidosis. As they were wheeling me into the OR, I was fading fast from the sedation, but I noticed braille markings on the...
