  1. All the Organic Chem professors have a bad rating

    I went back to http://www.ratemyprofessors.com and found this video from a professor striking back at some of the students who gave him poor ratings... It's not very professional, but it's funny and...
  2. All the Organic Chem professors have a bad rating

    Ha ha.. I agree. I used this site a lot whenever I was working through my associates degree and Bachelor's. I chose my classes based on the ratings and I never disagreed too much with them. I also...
  3. I guess I'm too HOT to be a nurse.

  8. OSU Medical Center RN Residency/Internship Program

    Hi, I've responded my email to you, but I forget about the pay and union dues. When I was there in 2006 the pay was about $23 plus weekend and shift diff of (I think) $2.50 per hour. I worked 36...

  10. What interview questions to expect from Sheriff's Dept

    First of all, I would recommend you do not wear revealing clothing or anything really form fitting. This may suggest you are not aware of your surroundings (inmates). Think of a good answer of why...
  11. My dream is turning out to be a nightmare!

    From my understanding, an AAS (Associates of applied science in nursing) is the same as an ADN (associates degree in nursing). Many times, I will write ADN on a resume rather than AAS. By very virtue...
  12. Do you ever feel guilty about....

    The mom is obviously not a nurse. I don't feel guilty at all. I am the breadwinner of the family and I think it's my RIGHT not to have to do a thing if I
  13. Threatened to be Fired for "patient safety" issues.

    I don't know whether it is altogether personal. I do believe the nurse manager wants you to leave but it could be because of your physical limitations. It's very hard to staff a unit when nurses have...

  19. Ready to start my journey to become a nurse

    I went to Columbus State. I think the prereqs are the same as most programs. You have to have math, english, biology, chemistry. But there are a lot of general education classes you can take while you...
  20. If you weren't a nurse...

    Me too.... used to be, then a change of career. If I wasn't too old, I'd probably return to
  21. Things you'd LOVE to tell the doc and get away with it....

    The prison doc was standing with hands on hips, bottom lip stuck out, saying "Who's going to get my vital signs for me?" I had no nurses to spare, they were either out on emergencies or passing pills....
  22. And how am I supposed to cover these shifts???? You don't let me hire any nurses... If I could pull em out of my ass I would have my own
  23. Inmates as Patients in Hospital

    It's not overkill if one tries to
  24. Wonder how often this happens

    Really? How many inmates at those facilities, and are they medically screened to go to those
  25. Mad and confused!
