  2. Quitting job during orientation?

    LovelyOverload replied to angieRN528's topic in General Nursing

    See if you could work PT or PRN after orientation then in 6 months get a transfer into L&D. That's kind of a backdoor into

  3. What do you think?

    LovelyOverload replied to petertheparrot's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    From what I gather you had 5 jobs in two years and are getting ready to apply to a new job and want to know if you should list the job you got fired from on you application? I would first before...

  4. Did you choose nursing because it was your "calling"?

    LovelyOverload replied to Corgilicious's topic in General Students

    I guess you could call it a calling. I decided I wanted to be nurse in high school because I wanted to take care of babies. I had no idea what exactly a nurse did but I knew I wanted to be one. LOL. I...

  9. No call no show, and feeling terrible about it!

    LovelyOverload replied to omha's topic in General Nursing

    Don't feel bad. Email is not the best way to communicate a schedule change. Talk to your manager and tell them what happened. Schedule changes should be made in person or on the phone. I go WEEKS...

  10. did any of you share your first job offer on Facebook?

    LovelyOverload replied to mixtapern's topic in General Nursing

    LovelyOverload replied to Nurse2bOK's topic in Oklahoma Nursing
