  1. $100,000 in student loan debt?

    And the one next to it with the plus sign and quotation marks is a multi-quote. If there is more than one post in a thread you'd like to quote, click that button, and when you click "post reply",...
  2. Chillax! :) You probably learned the skills you needed- assessment (even if it'll need some tweaking for med/surg), time management and critical thinking. That's the biggies that you won't learn in...
  3. $100,000 in student loan debt?

    Check out Dave Ramsey- we started doing that in August of last year. We've paid off four debts and will be moving this weekend. Once we get settled, we'll be able to pay off a vehicle. We've also been...
  4. Two more weeks....

    I agree. I'm begging you to stay away from Wainright now! I'm sorry I ever mentioned them. They were good to me in college, but now- YUCK. We got keys to 5 places when we were looking. The lights...
  5. OR Nurse Salary DFW

    Also keep in mind the price of living is a whole lot less in TX than Wa state. My sis does real estate near Bremerton (Naval area). A 1500 sq. ft 3bed/2.5 bath is $245,000. IN the DFW area, a similar...
  6. Getting on to a transplant team

    Great question! I'm interested in this also (one of those things that evolves into something you're passionate about). For me, it's organ donation- my sister is alive b/c of a K/P transplant. Her...
  7. Have you gained weight ?

    Yes, I've gained about 30lbs since starting a year ago. *EEK* Going from a busy ER where I was lucky to get to scarf down a lunch to a desk job is not a good
  8. I am the nurse...

    Not the beautician. Please stop coming to my office to ask for crap like nail files or hair clips.
  9. ACLS question

    I would wait. 1- You want some experience to back it up (constantly looking at strips, analyzing causes, etc). 2- Your facility will probably pay for it.
  10. Two more weeks....

    Yep! That's how my job does it too. The pay period ended today, and I'll get paid for the time I submitted today in two
  11. Hope this ends well...

    I'm at the high school level. We're doing the "Krispy Kreme Challenge" today to raise money for the yearbook. It involves students running a mile, eating six Krispy Kreme donuts and then running...
  12. I've joked about getting the tattoo also- if only it were a legal document! It seems awful to say, but I do wish she would have went ahead and passed when it happened. She has no quality of life now....
  13. Bleeding normal at time of Mantoux test?

    Bruising- when I did the TB skin tests for my health occupations class here at the high school, 90% of the kids had a bruise. 100% had a beautiful bleb when I did the injection too. I was freaked out...
  14. Hope this ends well...

    Good news- only one person got sick, and she never actually vomited, she just gagged. I think they raised about
  15. Then we're screwed if we've just eaten in the last two hours.
  16. A lot of your certifications will need experience. Besides PALS/ACLS, you might want to wait a year or two before you start to go after some others. TNCC (trauma) will come in handy, and some people...
  17. I agree. My husband and I have spoken at length about our wishes. We're both nurses, so we've seen family that has held on too long to the person who should have been let two shifts ago. If we've been...
  18. What type of nursing do you do?

    Education required depends on your location! I have my ADN and am a school nurse (they want me to get my BSN so I can take the certification exam, which requires a bachelor's). I've worked ER and...
  19. 13 and pregnant....

    If parents only knew- in the schools we're so limited by what we can teach because some sheltered "not my child" parent will come in an threaten to sue since we've corrupted their child. *insert...
  20. Hope this ends well...

    Update (again): Spoke with student with diabetes. He is NOT eating the donuts. WOOHOO. And he'll probably walk instead of run. Even
  21. No longer motivated

    Congrats!!!
  22. Two more weeks....

    Good luck! Did Hearthside ever contact you back? We've sent off all of our money for deposits and stuff. Still sounds like you'll be in orientation with my husband June 1. Here are some extended stay...
  23. Hope this ends well...

    Now that's just not American. I think they did one in Greenville this year too. The teacher who does yearbook, her son went to NCSU, which is where the got the idea from. I'm looking forward to...
  24. Hope this ends well...

    Here's linkage to the original:
