    Gennaver replied to Gennaver's topic in Government, Military

    Hi, I am quick replying to myself to share here an email I just sent to my recruiter. Sigh, yesterday he insisted that they could not change my bonus to drop it but told me that I "had" to increase it...

    Gennaver replied to KYnightnurse's topic in General Nursing

    Two hospitals that I worked at required this. One was where it was "re-instated" called them walking rounds or walking report of shift or something. I think they did claim it was Joint commission but,...

    would you be a RN for $11.00/hr?

    Gennaver replied to PHLEBOTOMIST_TO_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I would rather be a "volunteer" for no pay than to be offered that. Last year as an CNA I earned $14.00 an hour. The entry level degree has no license, no malpractice and deferrs all responsibility...

    Gennaver replied to Gennaver's topic in Government, Military

    Hi, Yeah, it is an "eventful" application process for sure! If I were not beyond the maximum age requirements for the Navy I would apply and would have applied. My father was a Marine and my first ex...

    Gennaver replied to Gennaver's topic in Government, Military

    I am trying. Thankfully someone at the AMEDD recruitment website is requesting to look into it. Sigh, I was really hoping to be set to go yet, if he would have been honest then I would have changed my...

    how long is too long??

    Gennaver replied to drew9319's topic in Government, Military

    Hi, My guess is that if they misplaced your application then it didn't go before the last board and will probably go before the "next" board. Fwiw, my Army package took three boards to pass, I think...

    A New Twist on a Familiar Complaint: Toxic EMPLOYEES

    Gennaver replied to VivaLasViejas's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The employee who makes others suspect a personality disorder! Yikes, not fun to be around and "no one" can be happy around them. Almost like living in a stuck record of a psych rotation inpatient....

    Run out of nursing school - what to do?

    Gennaver replied to Diahni's topic in General Nursing

    Hi, Oh, I would bet that direct entry programs are indeed just as tough as associate ones. We lost three men in the last two quarters of my program. Our program concludes this june. So, yeah, the...

    Gennaver replied to Gennaver's topic in Government, Military

    Thanks JaxiaKiley and Caliotter, Its just that my recruiter, new to AMEDD, is really clueless I think. I am not sure why he has done things or had me do things and I suspect it is why my application...

    OB Spanish

    Gennaver replied to Shappy's topic in Ob/Gyn

    A word of caution. I have come across some pages of "translated into Spanish" information from babel fish and it has been absurdly off mark. I highly recommend to avoid it due to the lack of...
