  1. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    Dungbeetle, your post made so much sense. I always say that education could never be wasted. This is especially true for the trades where you pick up tangible life skills. I really take your posts...

  2. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    My husband is a CPA and I've actually worked in corporate tax. I always saw it as a pink collar job, similar to teaching and cosmetology...but that is splitting hairs...I get what you're saying. Are...

  3. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    After spending tons on law school, I plan on attending PBSC for pre-reqs, and preferably FAU for its ABSN. However, I'll go to PBSC for its BSN, which is schedulled to start in January 2012. Also,...

  4. Science/Math isn't your thing, but you're doing it

    Grindaholic replied to Sophiamez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    These posts are helping to get me psyched and ready for sciences. I got spooked from majoring in anything medical-related because of bio and chem. Now that I'm in my 30s, with life experience, I...

  5. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    I apologize if I've offended you in anyway. I only have the JD, and since you have both the RN and JD, I defer to your experiences. Your last post expressed your intent more clearly and I truly...

  6. Can someone set me strait on what to expect for FAU nursing please?

    Grindaholic replied to mrmedical's topic in Florida Nursing

    It does, tremendously. It lowers the pressure of only focusing on the ABSN. By doing the ADN, I can get back to the workforce quicker. After reading your post, I asked my best friend (a nurse)...

  7. Got my acceptance letter for the ABSN program at FAU

    Grindaholic replied to tracie0305's topic in General Students

    This is an old thread, but just in case you're still around, anything you care to share about the ABSN? The intensity? Getting in?

  8. Can someone set me strait on what to expect for FAU nursing please?

    Grindaholic replied to mrmedical's topic in Florida Nursing

    MrMedical, thanks for posting this. So, to make sure I understand what you've said, my goal is the ABSN at FAU, but you're saying most of the BSN classes at FAU can be taken online? Intriguing. I...

  9. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    No one here said that all attorneys are only out to make money and devoid of souls. No one said that all nurses are girl scout Nightingales. Making comments about one does not condemn the qualities...

  10. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    Hi choco80, I had to wait until my hubby was done with his CPA testing and busy-season travelling. We also moved back to Florida, it made more sense to wait once I arrived here. Now that I'm back in...

  11. Nurse Analyst at Major Law Firm in Miami

    Grindaholic posted a topic in Legal

    Shook, Hardy and Bacon is an international law firm searching for a Nurse Analyst. If I were an RN, this would be an opportunity that I would be extremely interested in. I hope I can live vicariously...

  12. S. Florida: What Do You Foresee for New Grads of 2012?

    Grindaholic replied to Grindaholic's topic in Florida Nursing

    NightNurse876, thank you for responding. I don't want to have to go back to school later, which is precisely why the BSN is definitely what I'd prefer to shoot for, especially since this is my second...

  13. S. Florida: What Do You Foresee for New Grads of 2012?

    Grindaholic posted a topic in Florida Nursing

    If I earn my LPN, I'll enter the workforce in mid-2012. But with my BSN, it'll be 2013 (if I do an accelerated program). I'm going back to S. Florida (Miami-Ft.Lauderdale-West Palm Beach area). With...

    Congrats!

  15. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    You're not alone! eHugs! I reached out to someone who has a doctorate in nursing, as well as a JD. She was a nurse first, then a lawyer, and now an educator running a nursing program at a large...

  16. Lawyer to Nurse

    Grindaholic replied to layne228's topic in Nursing Career

    Hello all! This is my first post. I am so happy to have read this thread. I too have my JD. I was a prosecutor right out of law school. I took some time off to stay home with my kids. Now, the economy...
