    Believe it or not, this happens often enough. Either they are being sarcastic or they really don't know, if you can picture

    Inappropriate nurses?

    Kooky Korky replied to hgraves64's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The OP is being gobbled up by peers right here on this thread. So many rude replies to her. I think she was out of line. Why not just answer the guy? Or nicely suggest that he talk to the Charge....

    The good ole days of nursing...share your stories!

    Kooky Korky replied to NurseLife88's topic in General Nursing

    I also am a diploma grad, 1970's. Our OB wasn't quite as comprehensive as yours, but close. We also did OR. If nothing else, the OR taught you why your patient had pain post-op, and the vital...

    What do Psych patients have to look forward to for the rest of their lives today? Really? Yes, there are some group homes, state long-term facilities for forensic pts in particular, lots of meds,...

    A little vent about contributing to office occasions

    Kooky Korky replied to Buggus's topic in School

    Would you (or you, OP, or anyone else who feels maltreated re: these matters) ever consider taking the initiative and telling the person(s) running the event to make sure he or she calls me when the...

    Can a supervisor force you to take a second floor?

    Kooky Korky replied to Ccinct's topic in General Nursing

    Her husband could have sat and waited for her. Leaving 2 hours early every time she works and expecting some other nurse to cover the patients for 2 hours is wrong. At the least, you and the other...

    Sick of the BS

    Kooky Korky replied to Helluvanurse33's topic in General Students

    Well, here goes. Never tell your grades. Don't ask others theirs. Let other students answer questions sometimes. Pick the person who seems to lead the others and say something to her like, "You know,...

    Just a cafeteria worker, huh? And if you didn't go to work, someone would be hungry. Or a teacher or Principal or secretary might have to jump in and do your lowly cafeteria work. I have always...

    Injection Gone Wrong: Part 3

    Kooky Korky replied to Brenda F. Johnson's topic in General Nursing

    Tremendously disturbing. One issue - she could have seen her doctor of choice right away, just that she probably would have had to pay for it, although she might have been able to get WC to cover it...

    Injection Gone Wrong: Part 2

    Kooky Korky replied to Brenda F. Johnson's topic in General Nursing

    What's sensational about her approach? She's just telling her story - a very important one, too. I went back to basics after reading Part 1, and studied about injection technique/sites, even though...

    Nursing is not for you if you don't have a burning passion for it?

    Kooky Korky replied to .CJ.'s topic in General Students

    Nearly any post here from an American? There are probably hundreds daily. You are saying they're nearly all negative? Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong again. OP will make her own decision. Perhaps...

    How do you know what God does or doesn't care about? Or what God does or doesn't want for a particular person? You are entitled to your view of God and His will. So is OP, so is everyone else. It's...

    Diversity/Religion In The Workplace

    Kooky Korky replied to RutgersFlower2016's topic in General Nursing

    Red soup, huh? Wow, what was up with your coworker??? Maybe she was a bull and the red revved up her blood? Why in the world would your NM get involved in that? That is really insane. Perhaps...
