Good God, no! Where do people work where they can do this? I'm lucky if I can scarf some food before I pass out around 3pm. I haven't taken a real lunch break in the year I've been working.

I can't believe that I'm the only one wondering if the plastics job would give me free/discounted plastic sx.

Being there for someone's death is as much of an honor as being there for someone's birth. It is very hard sometimes, and I have left work crying (I can ususally hold it together till I'm away from patients), but it's really special too.

If I was doing it all over again, I'd just go to med school!

If the threats during staff meetings are correct, then breathing wrong will make you loose it

We do HCGs before Toradol. Rarely give it to women though.

#2 for me. I'd love to do outpatient work.

Gravity. It would do it with or without a pump.

Yep you can. How about a nurse tech job in an ER?

Option 1. Day shift makes it. Plus, you want to go to CRNA school so you won't be there forever anyway.

I'd stay put. If you want to go back to NP school, then take this time to gain experience where you are, pay off your loans and save up some money for grad school (you won't be able to work full time when you are in the NP program).

A job as an ER tech is your best bet. And use your husband...as proven by certain people I work with, it isn't what you know, but who you know! Does your husband know anyone that works in the ER?

I love women/children's health. I'm working er though.

Yes. There are many people that can pass the NCLEX and get a licence, but that doesn't mean that they are good nurses. More like technicians who can pass a test and perform some skills.
