  1. I give in, I'm a COB

    canigraduate replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    LOL!! "Crusty bred...crusty dead!!" My husband asked me what the H I was laughing at so

  2. Are We "Glorifying" Nurses?

    canigraduate replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    Everything is easy to the people who are good at it. My brother couldn't get through nursing school to save his life, but I probably couldn't do an MBA like he did. It's pointless comparing different...

  3. RN to BSN at WGU?

    canigraduate replied to noelly10's topic in Western Governors University

    I am currently doing my RN-BSN through WGU and it's going well. I started in June and have already finished one class and am halfway through another. The assessment of the first class was really...

  6. Are We "Glorifying" Nurses?

    canigraduate replied to nynursey_'s topic in General Nursing

    Man, what a dumb, short-sighted, inflammatory article. That's five minutes I can't get back. Too dumb to even bother discussing. I believe it's strawberry daquiri time — much more

    canigraduate replied to canigraduate's topic in General Nursing

    So sorry that happened to

  8. It's not my job to pray with you.

    canigraduate replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I hadn't thought of that particular perspective before. Thanks for saying that, it makes me feel a little sheepish about my earlier

  9. It's not my job to pray with you.

    canigraduate replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Man, if I got mad at all the people I disagreed with... Well, I do, but I don't stay that way. Gracious, I'd be at odds with everybody. OCNRN63, I guess contemptuous is a strong word. Perhaps...

  10. Orientee with untreated ADHD

    canigraduate replied to ICU.RN23's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    You're welcome! It's hard to precept when you're ADD, so cut yourself some slack. A few suggestions for when she's on full speed ahead: Instead of giving her verbal cues, ask her to step outside or...

    canigraduate replied to canigraduate's topic in General Nursing

    Oooh, that's awful. Double funny .gifs for

  12. I'm a sexless nurse

    canigraduate replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I saw that it made the top 5 in "hot topics" so I clicked to the end to see how far it had gotten. I dropped out waaaaay too early. Although, I guess I didn't miss much, come to think of

  13. I will not defend nurses anymore

    canigraduate replied to lost soul's topic in General Nursing

    I was just wondering something similar. In this whole story, the wife did nothing for herself. Is she deaf/mute/immobile? Why didn't she ask for crackers or something when she was getting her meds?...

  14. It's not my job to pray with you.

    canigraduate replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Just wait for the East Coast RNs to get up. It's coming. I'd say something myself, but I don't trust myself to remain within TOS on that particular

  15. Leaving Work at Work

    canigraduate replied to WonderWomanLPN1's topic in General Nursing

    Here's a thread that was started not long ago that could help you with leaving things at work. https://allnurses.com/general-nursing-discussion/how-do-you-996621.html As far as eating your young, I...

  16. Orientee with untreated ADHD

    canigraduate replied to ICU.RN23's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    This is a little confusing. Is it your current orientee that is amazing and knowledgable, or the one orientee that you had before this one? If you are talking about two different people, you should...

  17. Changing specialities?

    canigraduate replied to Therhapsody89's topic in Travel

    Basically, I have the same advice as everyone else. If you want to do Med-Surg, then you need to get a Med-Surg job. When I travelled, I received a whopping 2 days of orientation (which I am grateful...

  18. Your worst nightmare

    canigraduate replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Then I'm sorry that happened to your coworker, but more sad for the patient's family. If you want to hear a real nightmare, mine are centered around patient census. In my worst ones, I find out after...

  19. I'm a sexless nurse

    canigraduate replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I can't believe this thread is still going. I was sure it would have been closed and/or stripped and re-issued by

  20. Your worst nightmare

    canigraduate replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I guess if this is the first time you've seen this poster, you could take him at face value. I personally have seen and read all of his threads, and have participated in one that was largely deleted....

  21. Your worst nightmare

    canigraduate replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think I understand why you're so angry. It's very obvious that you are telling this story for a reaction. You've even stated that's what you want. Why does it matter to you if we believe these...

  22. It's not my job to pray with you.

    canigraduate replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    There are a bunch of states in the southern United States that have a deeply religious culture. There are more churches than

  23. Did I mess up my second interview??? (kinda long...)

    canigraduate replied to Nursing2102's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Some of the questions this manager asked are pretty standard. I've been asked the nursing journal one and the conference one many times. I don't read journals and I don't go to conferences, and I tell...

  24. It's not my job to pray with you.

    canigraduate replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    LOL! In my head I see you standing with a shield and a sword, repelling all comers. Or maybe beleaguered by hordes of people who are coming at you with Bibles/Torahs/Qurans/sacred scrolls. **wiping...

  25. How do you get to Blue from the mobile app?

    canigraduate replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    Man, that sucks. I didn't make it in time for my mother and I still feel guilty sometimes, even though I know it didn't matter to her. I was sick and she wanted me to stay home, but I tried, anyway. I...
