    I would also like to caution you against diagnosing coworkers with symptoms such as mania and ADHD. If you're doing it to an open forum of strangers, chances are you've talked about this at work....

    Nurse Eye Roll loves Dollar Tree pens too! My favorite are Papermate, black, medium point. I buy them at Walgreens. I'm on my second 10 pack in 3 months. I have like, 7 left. Where do they

    Nursing is becoming stupid
