  1. got yelled at today- for volunteering

    airborneinf82 replied to nurse441's topic in General Nursing

    OK, well you are entitled to your opinion. You don't have to try and belittle others who disagree with you. The fact remains, you are making assumptions about a situation in which you were not...

    airborneinf82 replied to nurse441's topic in General Nursing

    OK, before you jump down my throat and come at me with some sort of attitude, I think you should re-read the post. The OP said they were talking to them during the tour to get good information about...

  3. got yelled at today- for volunteering

    airborneinf82 replied to nurse441's topic in General Nursing

    I don't get why everyone is thinking this is a bad thing? So the OP was upfront about wanting to volunteer to get their foot in the door. The coordinator and everyone on here agreeing with her are...

    airborneinf82 replied to PineappleCrush's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I had the same number (approx.) that they gave us in the initial workshop. The costs were not in the packet they gave us so they just told us the cost of tuition from 2009 I think. The $3537 sounds...

    Yeah it was an interesting experience to say the least! I'm glad I did it, but I'm also glad I got out too. And yeah, I did go overseas. I went to Baghdad, Iraq for 15 months. If you remember when...

  10. Any VA Hospital RN's?

    airborneinf82 replied to empyrean7's topic in Arizona Nursing

    How do you go about applying for an externship at the VA? I am a vet and would be interested in doing that. I want to work at the VA so this would be perfect. How far in to Nursing school do you...

    airborneinf82 replied to PineappleCrush's topic in Arizona Nursing

    @CRNA, yeah I imagine there probably is an additional commitment following completion. And I'm guessing they have the amount at $120,000 for all the post-grad stuff. @Pineapple, the AF and Navy have...

  15. ASU Summer 2010 Program Applicants

    airborneinf82 replied to PineappleCrush's topic in Arizona Nursing

    You might look in to going in as an RN and then having them send you to become a CRNA. Look in to it a bit, but I believe there is a Naval school in San Diego that trains all branches for CRNAs....

  23. Health Care Bill

    airborneinf82 replied to VerbalGrl715's topic in General Nursing

    Alright, well you obviously took "they all" too literal. I should have said, so many people around the world from countries with socialized medicine. Or at least those that have the ability to. By...

    The constitution is clear in what the federal government can and cannot due. Anything else is in the control of the states, unless Amended. There is no mention of having the powers to force citizens...
