  2. Co-workers...when they run hot and cold on you.

    We got this new charge nurse, last week. She has been in nursing for 3 months. She is "friendly" (if you know what I mean), to the director. She got this job because she has a B.S. in nursing and minor in *******s. Yesterday, 4 PRN nurses turned in t...

  5. I think I am suffering from "Burn out" syndrome.

  14. CPS all the way. Many case workers are over worked, but try to get one there. You can sometimes get a police officer to call it in--then it might jump start it. Depending on the words--it could be abuse, too, towards you.

  21. Taking NET on Wednesday - any last minute tips?

    Get a good nights sleep, at least 6 hours. Wake up eat oatmeal and OJ, at least that helps me. Arrive 35 mins early--try not to look at the material right before the test. You need to give yourself some distance. Doing this usually helps with the ner...
