  3. Part of what irritated me and why I'm talking about it years later is that the state board was so insensitive in their reply to me. They insisted that disrobing was a part of training students and...
  4. In most cases I restrain myself from passing a judgement on obsessive eaters. In recent weeks though, I have become severely agitated when I go to my classroom which has a sign right on the door...
  5. The idea that "the time is gone so the feeling is gone," should be avoided. I notice that this is a common complaint among victims of abuse. It was years ago but this does not make it less...

    In this case, they were loud and distracting and it was the attitude they were doing it with. Believe me they did make a lot more noise than someone taking notes. They sat all around me when they...

    For this reason, don't bring your textbooks to work, try not to do your reading while doing patient care, and then all the noise won't irritate you so

    Do you think eating in the classroom is rude?

    As one poster pointed out, the crumbs from food can bring bugs, so this is a good comparison. In this case, with NO FOOD OR DRINK, some of us are handicapped 1. in the sense that we get distracted by...

    Do you think eating in the classroom is rude?

    You don't have to tell me about it. I've passed meds (where I already passed the exams and already know the routine) where I have to shut most of the noise out. This is not quite so easy when I'm...

    I also have hypoglycemia and I do not solve this with junk food. I respect my classmates and the NO FOOD OR DRINK sings so that I leave when I think my blood sugar is out of balance. I'm sorry but...

    Do you think eating in the classroom is rude?
