    whodatnurse replied to Spritenurse1210's topic in General Nursing

    Ouch!!! I am so sorry to hear that. I can imagine how badly that must sting. "I" applaud you! (I know it's nowhere near the same...but I hope it's a teensy bit

  2. Am I crazy???

    whodatnurse replied to Portigee's topic in General Nursing

    I think it was more the part that came after the "I want to be a surgeon" that rubbed the wrong way - the "I just don't know how dedicated I am to studying"...implying that nursing wouldn't require...

    whodatnurse replied to Jo Dirt's topic in General Nursing

  6. Externship: Early Split!

    whodatnurse replied to NewTexasRN's topic in General Nursing

    From their point of view they extended you an opportunity, one that might have been highly coveted by another person who didn't get it. I don't think they would take it as an expression of gratitude...

  7. how should this situation be handled?

    whodatnurse replied to Ms.RN's topic in General Nursing

    Playing with a NEEDLE??? And this person is employed in health

  8. Gifts for references?

    whodatnurse replied to missrebecca's topic in General Nursing

    As a general rule, gifts aren't given in professional situations to people who have authority over you. The one exception is when they're retiring - then it's fine for subordinates/students to pitch...

  9. I was slapped by a doctor!

    whodatnurse replied to cluelessRN81's topic in General Nursing

    Can you elaborate a little more on his behavior during the meeting. Was he calmly trivializing the whole thing? Was he wildly defensive? Wasn't there any expression of remorse...not even a carelessly...

  10. Learn To Say It Correctly!!

    whodatnurse replied to SheriLynnRN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm always amazed at the number of people out in cyberspace who are trying to "loose" weight. Perhaps if they did lose weight their pants would become

  11. Would you do it?

    whodatnurse replied to jennjen512's topic in General Nursing

    whodatnurse replied to litbitblack's topic in General Nursing

    When I volunteered as an EMT, I knew a couple of people who invested in their own 'jump bags'...and they had portable pulse ox devices. They just figured they were always happening upon 'situations'...

  13. getting in nursing school...chances

    whodatnurse replied to lovekids567's topic in General Nursing

    My school will consider only the last 30 credits earned when considering your GPA if it's better than your overall GPA...recognizing that a person can learn from earlier

  14. Gaining weight

    whodatnurse replied to MyEyes's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, yes, yes. OP - If it wasn't clear...when I said you didn't need to rush over to DMV ASAP...I just meant you didn't need to panic, drop everything and do it TODAY...but you really should put it on...

  15. Gaining weight

    whodatnurse replied to MyEyes's topic in General Nursing

    My thoughts on that are that if you were ever to be pulled over by a law enforcement officer and they're on the fence concerning the truthfulness of what you have to say...I think a small thing such...

  16. I was slapped by a doctor!

    whodatnurse replied to cluelessRN81's topic in General Nursing

    Unfortunately...that's just not the case. Any woman living in the United States, no matter how dire her circumstances, is far better off than about 50% of the women in the entire world, in terms of...

  17. I was slapped by a doctor!

    whodatnurse replied to cluelessRN81's topic in General Nursing

    I think we all expect to be able to go to work everyday without having to wonder whether or not we're going to be slapped in the face that day. Report it immediately. Anybody who goes around slapping...

  18. Not sure which job to take

    whodatnurse replied to amberfnp's topic in General Nursing

    You do realize that if you stay, you can't just add new baby into the mix, IN ADDITION to everything else you currently have going on. You'll have to scale back somewhere or you'll lose your sanity....

  19. Would you do it?

    whodatnurse replied to jennjen512's topic in General Nursing

    Good for you for standing firm! Doesn't sound as if human resources at your hospital does a very good job of communicating and/or maintaining ongoing awareness of hospital policy requiring...

  20. Fear of hospitals

    whodatnurse replied to BiologyNerd's topic in General Nursing

    BiologyNerd - What she's saying is that she hasn't gotten any indication that you're digesting all the great guidance that has been proferred. We all start out with idealistic notions of how things...

  21. Staying in touch with pt after discharge

    whodatnurse replied to Texas Tornado's topic in General Nursing

    This post reminded me of something I've been wondering about. Is there an etiquette or rule when you show up to work and find you're to care for a patient you have an acquaintance with? Do you have...

  22. Don't get mad but... i HATE this forum

    whodatnurse replied to fUsi0n86's topic in General Nursing

    I hate it too! It keeps calling out to me for attention when I should be concerning myself with such things as how to distinguish my extensor digitorum longus from my fibularis longus on next week's...

  23. Should boyfriend help me out?

    whodatnurse replied to QUEBEBRAN's topic in General Students

    Your feelings of disappointment at missing out on this particular opportunity are very, very understandable. But I can't help but wonder if their decision not to help you -even a little - was rooted...

  24. Should boyfriend help me out?

    whodatnurse replied to QUEBEBRAN's topic in General Students

    The issue for me since this thread began is this: Resources that belong to another person are theirs to GIVE. They are not anybody else's to TAKE. So regardless of whether it's parents or boyfriends,...
