5. "The Mean Girl"

   MedNurse2k replied to NamasteNurse's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

6. Are all LTC jobs like this?

   MedNurse2k replied to Comfortably_Numb's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

11. Lost my job....

    MedNurse2k replied to adorblepuppy's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Rather than give up so quickly, why don't you call your job and speak openly and honestly to the boss/supervisor. Explain to them that you are sorry for how you ended things. This job is important, as...
