    Im am being harrassed at work possibly because of my race

    chicookie replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    You stick to your dreams. Once you become an NP you can go back and rub it in there faces. To me, the more people that say you can't, the more you should do it. PROVE THEM

    Would you get treated at the hospital where you work?

    chicookie replied to Goingthere's topic in General Nursing

    I would get treated at my hospital but I wouldn't want to end up on my floor. I would feel way too exposed to my coworkers and I work very hard to keep my work life and private life

    chicookie replied to madwife2002's topic in General Nursing

    Are You Popular At Work?

    chicookie replied to Vito Andolini's topic in General Nursing

    I think I might be popular just because I am always joking around with everyone. Even the hucs that don't like anyone seem to like me. Of course one time two RNs fought over being my preceptor. They...
