    I'm finishing my prereqs and applying to several of the Atlanta Nursing Schools soon, including Emory, GSU, and KSU. Can anyone share first hand experience with KSU BSN program and the accelerated...

  2. Would you assist in abortions?

    Mr_D replied to Blackcat99's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I don't participate in the Republican/Democrat style of divisive and corrosive politics, so I ain't telling. Keeping in mind that the Republicrats use abortion, etc., as a strategy to whip their...

  5. Why get an MSN?

    Mr_D posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    What are the career advantages of getting an MSN? Does it automatically equate to more money or flexability or training (than an BSN)? Does anyone regret not getting one while their life was set up...

  7. Why get an MSN?

    Mr_D replied to Mr_D's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I lose more replies on this new system -- I'll try again for the third time. I am quite conflicted about this. If I want to go for an MSN, then I better do it immediately following my BSN. However,...

  8. Why get an MSN?

    Mr_D replied to Mr_D's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thanks for your response. What do you mean by a "generic MSN"? Also -- I am 39 now, will complete my BSN by 41. If I go for a MSN, I would finish around age 43. Do older nurses have a more...

    A brief bullet point summary of my reply THAT WAS LOST.... Great thread . . . After much discussion, my wife and I decided I will persue Nursing as a 2nd career. I am successful in the IT field. We...

  10. Divorce & Nursing

    Mr_D replied to NorthStar's topic in General Nursing

    I just wrote for the last 30 minutes a reply and this "new and improved system" lost it. First lost track that I was logged in, then lost track of my thread ( invalid thread error). I'm pissed!!...

    Mr_D posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm seriously considering going for my MSN immediately after completing my BSN, basically b/c my life is set up for school and would be a good time to do it. In terms of career flexibility and earning...

  12. What "ONE" thing do you know now that you WISH you had known then...

    Mr_D replied to Roland's topic in General Nursing

    It's almost comical how many were having second thoughts at the altar! 8 years later and I'm still wondering. Had I to do over again -- Thinking in terms of the "right" decision or "wrong" choice...

  14. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    I actually thought about a business that offered "bad credit services" so that one's credit report was more/less guaranteed useless!! When YOU needed credit, you'd log via the internet and "correct"...

  15. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    I appreciate your response -- my last two posts address most of it. I think Lizz would be in a more powerful place if she shared more. In dealing with this stuff, there's no acknowlegement (that I...

  16. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    I call as I see it. I witnessed how you related to Melanie, in summary, a condescending know-it-all manner. I'd said many times that I'm not about protecting the guilty. I happy you won your cases....

  17. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    Ok -- I see it's confusing. I don't see it as two completely different things. The credit system, the collection process, ID theft, the judiciary are interwined -- and fail more than they should....

  18. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    OK I got it. You are in business now and really don't really care how the process works as long it serves your needs. Your position is beginning to make more sense. Melanie, save your breath. There's...

  19. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    It's a tough question and I'm about to get in trouble with my significant other if I don't get some things done soon, so must be brief. I generally support a generous amortization of huge debt so...

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    In cases of Identity Theft, yes, there are victims. I used the word entrapped b/c there are so few rights available to vindicate one-self. You are guilty till you prove yourself innocent. And it...

  21. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    The moral superiority ego is coming out full force now. RNnTraining doesn't owe anyone here a detailed explanation of her court case. And she's been incredibly open about her situation -- and the...

  22. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    So what are you saying? "Tough luck. Really. Here's how the system is suppose to work. Maybe you forgot your court date or something. But those deadbeats are the issue, not what happened to you. (And...

  23. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    I appreciate it and can't describe how glad I am that it's gotten a little better for innocent people. I think you mean well, and not wanting to be critical, but your formulation is simplistic....

  24. Empoyers Who Request Credit Reports!!!

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    Wow. They didn't have that freeze feature in 1998. My wife and I were buying a house when we discovered my SSN had been used to rent apartment, pay bills, etc in south Florida. It took 9 months...

    Mr_D replied to Euskadi1946's topic in General Nursing

    I can't agree with you more about people taking personal responsibility for events in their life. But you take responsibility for what you are defending. And the credit system you defend has a LOT...
