  1. 2 job offers... now what???

    whodatnurse replied to SuperNurseBSN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know that the answer is obvious, but the next question that seems to be is: What kind of LIFE do you want to have? Consider how each option might affect your health and well being, your...

  2. Can you be a nurse if....

    whodatnurse replied to llaura's topic in General Nursing

    The challenge you have to rise up to is nothing more than making yourself clearly understood, which is no different from that of a person with a particularly thick foreign accent. Do you work with or...

  3. "size of the paycheck"

    whodatnurse replied to agnesj23's topic in General Nursing

    :eek:

  4. I am an American.

    whodatnurse replied to UnionRN2's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Oh, well now...the NYC subway is a whole other animal. I remember one time I was there, during the day, in business attire, and I turned towards a similarly attired man wearing a watch standing about...

  5. Classmate making me feel uncomfortable.

    whodatnurse replied to agua's topic in General Students

    I too don't think she should have a private talk with someone giving her an 'off' vibe. This may not be someone you want to risk making feel 'rejected' and/or

  6. Forced to come into work on day off

    whodatnurse replied to deletethisaccount's topic in General Nursing

    A lot of them already have done exactly this for at least the past 20 years in the corporate setting. Be wary. Now that management has the upper hand in terms of the supply and demand of personnel,...

  7. Forced to come into work on day off

    whodatnurse replied to deletethisaccount's topic in General Nursing

    I hope for your all's sake NOT answering will continue to even be an option (if you want to remain employed with them). Don't be surprised if they provide you with - or instruct you to purchase - a...

  8. Classmate making me feel uncomfortable.

    whodatnurse replied to agua's topic in General Students

    Your reactions to this person are of something being 'off'...not of someone who's socially awkward or kind of a jerk. I too thought this had an eerie wring of familiarity to what I've read of the VT...

  9. Forced to come into work on day off

    whodatnurse replied to deletethisaccount's topic in General Nursing

    How can they not tell you in advance? You mean to tell me that any time you have a day off they can just call, expect you to answer, then tell you to report to work immediately??? Geez...if I wanted...

  10. Anybody else catch this?... Glee Male nurse

    whodatnurse replied to wsuRN09's topic in General Nursing

    I TOO am a total Gleek! :up::up::up:

  11. Anybody else catch this?... Glee Male nurse

    whodatnurse replied to wsuRN09's topic in General Nursing

    I caught it. Along with her knowingly having a teenage student purposefully make a false accusation against a female coach that she had touched the student's breasts. That's the thing about the Sue...

  12. New grad, 1st med error...looking for advice & encouragement

    whodatnurse replied to wendysu84_LPN's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I haven't gotten my first nursing job yet, but of my classmates who have, they've all felt exactly like you when they made that first med error. I don't know that there's a nurse on here who's been...

  13. It seems probie's can't take a joke or laugh

    whodatnurse replied to abbaking's topic in General Nursing

    It seems to me situations such as this aren't in need of a 'solution' that requires someone to change to suit ourselves (good luck with that one) OR a determination of who's right and who's wrong....

  14. Anybody going to the 10/02 "march" on Washington?

    whodatnurse posted a topic in Activism, Healthcare

    Okay...it's not really a 'march'...despite their calling it one...because that would disrupt traffic and annoy the city's residents. But there's going to be a big rally at the Lincoln Memorial less...

  15. I am victim of speaking for myself

    whodatnurse replied to PRETTYODD's topic in General Nursing

    You're very

  16. I am victim of speaking for myself

    whodatnurse replied to PRETTYODD's topic in General Nursing

    What do you consider to be the 'high price'? You reported to a difficult manager. You felt you had to stand up for yourself, so you did (although the wisdom of calling the person who signs your...

  17. I FEEL LIKE I'VE MADE AN ABSOLUTE MISTAKE BECOMING AN LVN! I regret doing this!

    whodatnurse replied to luckystudentnurseRN's topic in California Nursing

    I feel your pain. I am a BSN who graduated 13 months ago and I still don't have a job. It's not YOU. Listen what happened to me earlier today. I applied for a job advertised at and salaried as...

  18. Dating someone from within ???

    whodatnurse replied to johnny depp23's topic in General Nursing

    Years ago while I was putting myself through grad school I worked as a cocktail waitress in a bar. We had an employee manual that summed up the 'no hanky-panky rule' as follows: "Keep your wick out...

  19. Career Change Blues.

    whodatnurse replied to gymnut's topic in General Nursing

    I know "I" don't feel insulted. In fact, I had started to wonder if all the stuff from my former career, the stuff that had always helped me land EVERY job I had ever applied for in the past, might...

  20. What To Do When Dating A Co-Worker

    whodatnurse replied to bobber's topic in General Nursing

    I'm still scratching my head as to when a surgical resident would have TIME to 'be clingy' at

  21. "obama" grant to go back to school

    whodatnurse replied to Nurse-One's topic in General Nursing

    OP - Are you thinking of the 159.1 million in grants that were awarded to train nurses and geriatrics workers? Obama administration awards $159.1 million for training geriatric-care workers They've...

  22. Makes me so angry!

    whodatnurse replied to Tarabara's topic in General Nursing

    IF EVER I saw an ad designed to lure poor, unsuspecting young foreign girls into sex trafficking...THIS is it!!! Sure...we'll be happy to bring you to the United States and 'sponsor' you. And you...

  23. Will there be nursing jobs in San francisco in 2014 and after?

    whodatnurse replied to Curiousgurl's topic in General Nursing

    The year I keep reading when...ALL OF A SUDDEN...1 million new nurses will be needed is 2018. I'm not saying that to discourage you. But I do think anyone beginning to pursue a nursing career NOW...
