  1. UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    punkydoodlesRN replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't think it would be fair to discuss exact questions, but I will say that it didn't seem much different from any job interview I've had. Some girls had on dresses (too short, imo) and heels. I...

  2. UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    punkydoodlesRN replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yup, people have been accepted with courses in progress and still left to complete. Good

  3. Things you'd LOVE to tell coworkers...and get away with it!

    punkydoodlesRN replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You are a doll to work with, really, but for the love of Jesus, please wear some kind of undershirt, maybe even spanx?? Seeing your entire midsection when you sit down is kinda nasty. I just want to...

  4. Things you'd LOVE to be able to tell patients, and get away with it.

    punkydoodlesRN replied to AngelfireRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    To my detoxer, I *know* you knew what you were doing, and if you keep directing your F-bomb tirades at me, I will get a STAT order for a cocktail and call a code so big men pin you down while I jam...

  5. UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    punkydoodlesRN replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    If you're talking about for those who were accepted, yes. Go back a few pages here, the tite is

  6. LVN to BSN, not through a bridge program

    punkydoodlesRN posted a topic in LPN to RN

    Just wondering if any of LVN/LPN nurses got their BSN without using a bridge program. I've been accepted to a bachelors program for the fall and about the only thing I'm getting for my LVN, is just a...

  7. descrimination in nursing

    punkydoodlesRN replied to reginachanana2660's topic in General Nursing

    The lying doesn't even bother me... the grammar makes me want to climb the wall... And perhaps it's because I just completed a 16, but I get the giggles reading her

  8. descrimination in nursing

    punkydoodlesRN replied to reginachanana2660's topic in General Nursing

    I would rather you learn how to spell... I'm losing patience* with your patients*

  9. Ok, what's the real deal with new grads?

    punkydoodlesRN replied to future nurse1's topic in General Nursing

    Wow. Your original question was poorly worded, and borderline offensive. This was just the icing. Glad there are people here who are going to actually take the time to answer, because I sure wouldn't....

  10. NRP vs PALS?

    punkydoodlesRN replied to Double-Helix's topic in General Nursing

    off the top of my head, I think the ratios are different for breaths, compressions. For NRP vs Pals (simply because of the age differences for the patients) NRP is geared for the neonate - a fresh to...

  11. Facebook almost cost me my job

    punkydoodlesRN replied to ReginaPhalange's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Before long, there might be the same stories from using this. This doesn't sit well with me, but I'm probably in the minority on this issue, so I'll just go back to my lurker

  12. UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    punkydoodlesRN replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    Nope, I don't think it's weird to inquire, at all. I had planned on doing so if I hadn't been accepted. And Yes, I'd start with her. She may not know, but may be able to direct you in the right...

  18. Are colors consistant across all brands of scrubs?

    punkydoodlesRN replied to wishfulthinking21059's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I would guess and say that they will definitely be different!!! :) I have to wear red and navy and every single top and bottom I own are different

  19. RN working as CNA2

    punkydoodlesRN replied to suzem's topic in General Nursing

    1) I always thought that was a no-no. Can't work below your license. I work with a nurse who let his NP go because he just wanted to be a floor nurse again. Couldn't do that and still hold his NP...

    punkydoodlesRN replied to student_nurse123's topic in General Nursing

    I made my preceptor an ID necklace for her stethoscope. She eyed mine the entire time I worked with her, so she was super excited. Other students did massage, starbucks and life uniform gift

    punkydoodlesRN replied to learning&yearning's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't look at that pdf, but I always get questions about integrity issues... and team playing.. If you see another nurse diverting, what would you do? If you have a conflict with a coworker, how...
