    Would you marry a Doctor?

    This is true. ALL the young docs FYI Op this means in their early 30's usually, do come married. I will also say that EVERY young doc I have met is married to another doc or doc soon to be

    Would you marry a Doctor?

    The dumb, humble, hot comment made me laugh! YUP! Why on earth would you want to go home to someone else in healthcare. It would be like never leaving work, even if you didn't discuss work stuff....

    NurseCubanitaRN2b, See you know of this too. I have Filipina/o friends (that came here the right way). They openly acknowlege this stuff that happens, much to their dismay. Silverdragon, there are...

    Any information is helpful!

    I think the OP understands she needs a license. She just is feeling screwed like anybody would when confronted with a possible do over, after just finishing. I guess if your area doesn't work in this...

    What do you get from BSN?

    And, a bonus of Romeo's institution, wonderful mastery of the English language. Sunnycali, I am ALL THAT (except bilingual) so, I've already met the requirements, I think I'll test out since I already...

    "Fired for NO Reason"

    Sure, but training is required for every skilled or task oriented job out there. Nursing jobs are not exclusive or special in any way. This industry just somehow gets away with this myth of undue...

    Any information is helpful!

    Just need to add, that many hospital systems hire foreign nursing staff over US nurses for the majority of their nursing requirements. Excellent grasp of the English language is not a priority. Many...
  9. Wow, so your hospital, where you have been working suddenly is aware of your status with the military? How did this go down? Were both you and your workplace notified by the BON out of the blue after...

    Applying For an ER Position- Resume Question

    Frustrated beyond belief!

    This is so unprofessional. Op, you are not to blame. I bet somebody has a VIP/friend in mind for the job. They took your information only to appear to be considering other applicants. Somebody over at...

    Lied on at work....

    Yeah, if you even care at this point. But as Hiddencat says, with my cell carrier I can go online and find all detail of incoming and outgoing calls. It sometimes is not there immediately but a day...

    Professionalism write up

    20 days? what the heck is up with that! That just sux OP. A similar thing happened to someone I know who had "dressed down" a surgeon who totally deserved a lashing. It was stellar, and this nurse...
