   Are you discerning with your "likes"?

   OCNRN63 replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

   I "Like" a post if I agree with the content of it or if it's a post from a member I really respect. I don't like people who stalk online...it creeps me out. That's just me.

   Black Sheep...time to leave?

   OCNRN63 replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Relations

   Well, you were still invited... I'm an introvert too, but I would have still been happy to be invited, even if it was late in the day. Sometimes you have to take opportunities as they come, not as you wish they would come.

    question re suit

    OCNRN63 replied to 40isthenew30's topic in General Nursing
