  1. My job made me an independent contractor, what does this mean for me?

    One2gofst replied to dehen13's topic in General Nursing

    If she worked a whole year like this, then yes. However, it has only been going on for a couple months. You only need to pay quarterly estimated taxes if you are turning a profit. It would be fairly...

  2. Should I go back for the 2nd interview?

    One2gofst replied to rshenry's topic in General Nursing

    I'll beat a dead horse here, but go back for the interview. I don't know what your non-nursing job is, but unless you are making bank at it AND they can't deal with changing things up one day a week,...

  3. Sanitary covering of tattoos for the workplace?

    One2gofst replied to bustthewave's topic in General Nursing

    I don't have an answer for you, I just wanted to commend you on being responsible and professional when so many other members of society want other people to conform to their choices. I have no...

  4. My job made me an independent contractor, what does this mean for me?

    One2gofst replied to dehen13's topic in General Nursing

    Just so you know, $25/hr as an IC is getting royally bent over. I had my own business as an IC for a company I used to work for. After you figure everything in, unless the other RNs are only getting...

  5. Change of mind?

    One2gofst replied to TamTammers's topic in General Nursing

    Physicians and nurses play different roles in health care. Neither is better or worse. One does require significantly more education as a minimum to practice in the field. I know a couple of great...

  6. My job made me an independent contractor, what does this mean for me?

    One2gofst replied to dehen13's topic in General Nursing

    It means a few things. You will receive a 1099 rather than a W-2. You will pay self-employment tax. You will receive no 401(k) (403(b) since it is a nonprofit). You will be responsible for your own...

  7. Get fired or resign from new grad program

    One2gofst replied to Aurora21's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Just one quick thought on this issue. OP has only been working there 3.5 months. If she did not have work history prior to that, 3.5 months would not be sufficient in MO to gain unemployment...

  8. Current job won't give the day off for new job orientation.

    One2gofst replied to NurseFrustrated's topic in General Nursing

    Just so you know, a company can put you on "not eligible for rehire" status for any reason they would like. In a perfect world this would not be a big deal. However it isn't a perfect world. I would...

  9. RN still working as CNA at dream job :(..

    One2gofst replied to jmurnbsn's topic in General Nursing

    A couple things that might help people give better advice: You mentioned the secretary got on after about 9 months. Is this time frame accurate for what you can expect too? If you transferred to...

  10. WHY??

    One2gofst replied to Julie_RN2b's topic in General Nursing

    He did, or else I wouldn't be here! The mission he got the Distinguished Flying Cross for, they didn't expect any of the planes to make it back and I believe 3 did, his being one of them. His name...

  11. WHY??

    One2gofst replied to Julie_RN2b's topic in General Nursing

    Expect the worst and you'll never be disapointed, LMAO As an aside, I really love pictures like that. my grandfather, whom I never got to meet, was a radio operator on a B-17 Flying Fortress in WWII...

  12. WHY??

    One2gofst replied to Julie_RN2b's topic in General Nursing

    I'll probably get a lot of flak for this, but I find a part of this thread humorous. On this site we constantly hear about hostile work environments, unfair labor practices, etc as laid out in federal...

  13. low lymphocytes

    One2gofst replied to lovenursing100's topic in General Nursing

    Better to just post one thread asking your question vs. multiples that people need to go

  14. WHY??

    One2gofst replied to Julie_RN2b's topic in General Nursing

    This is not a situation unique to healthcare. It opens the hospital up to potential liability if someone were to report that nurses are consistantly doing work related tasks while not on the clock....

  15. So...do you believe this?

    One2gofst replied to leonurse's topic in Geriatric, LTC

    To me, this is more of an illustration of fitting something to your belief than proof. I mean, yes those people have died recently. However, thousands of people die every day. The only reason you can...

  16. Winner of the creepiest nursing commercial ever....!

    One2gofst replied to RN2B123's topic in General Nursing

    That commercial is on all the time here. As far as UTIs go, unless there is already an infection, everything going through there is sterile and I don't see a real

  17. Nursing school is too easy!

    One2gofst replied to Maghunter's topic in General Students

    Really, I think the key question that needs to be answered before we can judge your program fairly is, what is their NCLEX pass rate? If they have a high pass rate they must be doing something right,...

  18. Why such a difference in pay????

    One2gofst replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think so. I think each person should be allowed to earn to the best of his or her

  19. Why such a difference in pay????

    One2gofst replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    I don't necessarily have a problem with people disclosing to one another their salaries, depending on the situation. However, I don't grasp how it is "unfair" to allow each individual to negotiate...

  20. Why such a difference in pay????

    One2gofst replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    Maybe its karma Sorry, jk, but I had

  21. Need Advice on BSN or ASN!

    One2gofst replied to rileysaunt's topic in General Nursing

    OK, understood about the scholarship. As far as debt goes, it is neither bad nor good, but can be either depending on how it is used. If you want to minimize your debt, work your ass off while you are...

  22. Need Advice on BSN or ASN!

    One2gofst replied to rileysaunt's topic in General Nursing

    If you have a "huge scholarship" it won't save anyone money to switch. If your folks can't help you, take out a loan. Most likely you cannot start an ADN program today and there might even be a wait...

  23. Need Advice on BSN or ASN!

    One2gofst replied to rileysaunt's topic in General Nursing

    Realistically, since you've already in a BSN nursing program you wouldn't save much time if any getting into an ADN program. on top of that you said you have a great scholarship, which takes out the...

  24. Need Help Coming up with an Excuse!!

    One2gofst replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    I assume you'd be referring to me :) I am not being moralistic at all. I don't even care if the OP wants to lie to her employer, as that is her business. I just think it is funny that someone who...

  25. Need Help Coming up with an Excuse!!

    One2gofst replied to Sl1011's topic in General Nursing

    Whatever you need to tell yourself. If you don't think you are lying, I am not going to convince you. My first line addresses that I feel someone who would title a thread "Need help Coming Up With An...
