  2. No less than what I expected...

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to AngelfireRN's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn’t bother either. It just goes to show how corporate America’s mentality truly has become. What do employers expect if they are not going to treat employees equally, or with mutual...

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to GonnaBSN's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  6. What do you think about a student missing clinical?

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to starrys's topic in General Students

    I concur with the other posters. First, check out the policy for make-up clinical times (if there is one). Then I would call the instructor and simply tell her that you’re feeling bad. I would...

  9. posting grades

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to Pneumothorax's topic in General Students

  13. Ever accepted a position knowing it was a mistake?

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to Gratefulprn's topic in General Nursing

    I was offered a position before graduating. Because the economy had taken a turn for the worst, I decided to accept the offer. I drove one way for an hour and a half and made $2.00 less an hour as a...

  14. Should I report wide-spread cheating in my class?

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to malarwen's topic in General Students

    That makes me feel better. I was trying to figure out how someone was able to access the information. Nurse Educate is correct in her post. Schools are going to favor the side of precaution since...

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to mursetudent25's topic in General Students

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to mofomeat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think so. I would say that my class is able to recite about 30% of what I have taught them. It is so much information in such a small amount of time. Just know that you will be getting an Anatomy...

  18. Transfer to a BSN program or finish bachelor?

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to mixie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are other factors to take into consideration. First, are you receiving any kind of financial aid? If so, that will stop after the conferral of your first Bachelor’s degree. Second, what is...

  19. Should I report wide-spread cheating in my class?

    ParkerBC,MSN,RN replied to malarwen's topic in General Students

    I wonder how the student was able to get ahold of a test bank. I have to register for the ancillary materials from the publisher, provide my information; finally the dean has to confirm that I am...
