  1. Should we have a National Union ????

    Mijourney replied to Rex's topic in General Nursing

    Mijourney replied to buck227's topic in General Nursing

    Mijourney replied to el's topic in General Nursing

    Hi el. If you don't mind, I'd like to offer my opinion although I have no experience as an entrepreneur. Would consulting or franchising be options? I've heard that franchising gives you some type of...

  6. JUST SAY NO TO MNM

    Mijourney replied to buck227's topic in General Nursing

    Hi. While I think it is important to debate the merits of both, does it have to be the government vs. private industry? Is either entity in and of itself a pancea for the troubles of this country (I'm...

    Mijourney replied to buck227's topic in General Nursing

    Mijourney replied to Rex's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks Rex. Your post is food for thought. Tim-GNP, you're right. Women are something else. So are men. We either get chewed, hen-pecked or nawed to death by women or get butchered and head chopped by...

  20. NJ Hosp Assoc against NJ Senate bill 2093 baring manditory overtime for RNS

    Mijourney replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in General Nursing
