    Do I share my medical history as part of my story to become a nurse?

    Kooky Korky replied to LeviY's topic in General Nursing

    Why do you think your coworkers or bosses want to be responsible for your personal problems, like incontinence or impotence. IMPOTENCE? Do you work in sex therapy and need your member at work????!!!...

    Pumping at work

    Kooky Korky replied to newmom17's topic in General Nursing

    Breasts nourish and they are sexual, like it or not. Perhaps "nudity of coworkers" is a more appropriate phrase. Even if newmom is covered up. There could be the briefest flash of breast during the...

    Kooky Korky replied to Blackcat99's topic in Agency Nurses

    Where I worked, 3 different jails in different states, absolutely. Yes I still felt unsafe almost all the time. You must always be alert. You are dealing with some very mentally ill people, some...

    Exit interview survey, tell the truth, lie or ignore

    Kooky Korky replied to Forest2's topic in General Nursing

    They say that President Lincoln was once angry with one of his Generals about the G's approach in some aspect of the War. He wrote a letter, expressing all of his anger and frustration. He then tore...

    Exit interview survey, tell the truth, lie or ignore

    Kooky Korky replied to Forest2's topic in General Nursing

    It's an awful idea. Don't answer it at all. The only likely result will be you worrying about it after the fact. And maybe getting a bad reference from them in the future. If you do answer it, say...

    Pumping at work

    Kooky Korky replied to newmom17's topic in General Nursing

    Not saying anything does not mean they don't possibly have feelings about it. They might or might not care at all or might find it somehow negative. Not your problem though. Just don't fight over...

    Pumping at work

    Kooky Korky replied to newmom17's topic in General Nursing

    I think you might want to talk privately with the person who reacted negatively. She was probably shocked, rightly or wrongly. Not everyone is comfortable with body issues like BF. I think you...

    Rude nurses

    Kooky Korky replied to rnbsn2md's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Exactly. For OP - try to not let them get to you. Be pleasant, let them see that you are human. Be courteous but not timid. You are a physician, a brand new one. You are there to learn. You need...

    Nurses are self governed

    Kooky Korky replied to BkirbyRN's topic in General Nursing

    Situations like this exist because of a lack of nurses uniting. Unions. I am sorry you are in such a ridiculous, dangerous, brutal situation, but you must get out of it stat. And think about what...

    Did I bomb this phone interview?

    Kooky Korky replied to Emm_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I had a recent interview where the interviewer made up her mind pretty quickly that I was not the right person, I think. Of course, she did say she was interviewing several other people later in the...

    Did I bomb this phone interview?

    Kooky Korky replied to Emm_RN's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not sure you did anything horrible. I would say that it was dangerous to you and to others sharing the road with you, plus not fair to you to do the interview out of the blue. So you should have...

    Kooky Korky replied to NolaBCbabeRN's topic in General Nursing

    Congrats on landing your first RN job. Is the child's father available at all? Someone suggested calling home each morning. Not always possible, though. Things will work out and it is good that you...

    Depressed anti social low self esteem. What to do?

    Kooky Korky replied to epinephrine1mg's topic in General Nursing

    Punched by a patient

    Kooky Korky replied to nurseontheway's topic in General Nursing

    Hit a cop, go to jail. Probably EMS, too. Nurses need to file a police report, get the police to come to the scene of the assault and battery/attempted murder. The hell with Admin or other nurses or...

    Kooky Korky replied to RobbiRN's topic in General Nursing

    Attendant was being lazy or just didn't know. Next time, try to go over his head. First case - protect the airway 2nd case - there doesn't seem to be anything immediate

    Kooky Korky replied to epinephrine1mg's topic in General Nursing

    Perhaps post-birth hormones are likely entering into your thinking and feelings, too. Post partum depression. Also, it is not too late to enter a career you think you might truly like. Do explore...

    New Grad BSN, RN, PHN, EMT and can’t find work. Legality of working as a CNA?

    Kooky Korky replied to oceanhugger's topic in General Nursing

    You cannot legally say you are an LPN or CNA if you are not. You could probably test out on those, though. Practice interviewing. I think something is going wrong there. Hire someone to write your...
