LOL, I had to look that up to see what Godwin's Law was. That is pretty true! Inevitably every president is either compared to Hitler or the Antichrist.

Wow I have never heard a Type B personality admit they are a Type B personality. I think they were all in denial..... LOL.

I am not sure about the GPA needed for the program. I had a 3.5 from my previous degree and I was told that was awesome by my adviser, but I found it just average. So it makes me wonder what kind of GPA's do they see? My classes transferred with A's,...

Geesh, good luck! I have no idea what I would do, but I think I might go to the interview over the ceremony. I live in Hampton Roads too and it is tough out here, from what I hear from nurses. Have you looked into Riverside or federal jobs on base o...

I just want to say thank you for posting something positive! There is a lot of negativity thrown around on this site and your post is refreshing! P.S. When I start school I hope to be as lucky as you have been and have some great nurses teaching me.

Wow that is pretty harsh. I worked as a technical recruiter and have an HR degree. There is a big difference between "Bona Fide" which allows you to discriminate if it specifically relates to the work, like a male model for a male clothing line and w...

Amen! Or they can exercise their liberty and move to another country...... Since they think they have it so bad!

I can not wait either!

I was told that my school looks at both. My admissions adviser had to recommend me for the program and before she did that she was all about my GPA from my last degree. Then once I got started on the program bandwagon, the Director was interested in ...

Well either way someone has to be there to operate the robots, do maintenance on the robots, and monitor the patients; so there are some jobs to be made. But as far as nurses go, I do not foresee it affecting RN's since they are needed at the bedside...

Liberty is the ability to make free choices and privacy is the ability to not be held accountable by anyone for your choices. If there is no accountability there is no safety, thus making laws irrelevant.

You have a profound misunderstanding of textbook definitions, if you are relating your quote to what I said. Liberty is: "freedom of choice", "freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control.", "freedom from control, interference, obligation...

Good point!

Yup, totally agree!

You could always add it to a shadow frame with your diploma!

Hey Everyone, I have an HR degree so I just wanted to help out with this. It is Legal and it is called "Bona Fide" Here is an excerpt from Wiki: In employment discrimination law in the United States, United States Code Title 29 (Labor), Chapter 14 ...

I also had to be fingerprinted for the VA Medical Center to volunteer. In order to get security clearances they run credit checks no matter what your job is in the military, for secret or higher anyway. I am not sure about confidential which is the ...

Do I think it is responsible for everyone in the hospital to be fingerprinted? Sure if that is what it takes to make the place safe. I did not mention techs and housekeeping because this discussion was about the nurses. Fingerprint them too, heck fin...

That was my point exactly, put yourself in the other person's shoes.

Playing the devil's advocate here..... Imagine you just delivered a baby and in the middle of the night your baby goes missing from the hospital nursery. Somehow cameras did not catch the person nor did anyone see anything. The only thing they have t...

I think that helping out people who use the assistance to better themselves and their lives is what assistance is meant for. A few bad apples spoil the bunch and when the general public sees people getting assistance and abusing the system it unfortu...

Congrats! I know how you feel. I worked as an electronics technician for 8 years and got a Bachelors in Technical Management; I hated my work life! I learned the trade in the Navy and got stuck in the field when I got out. I pursued a degree I did no...

Hello! I quit my job in Jan 2010 because I was unhappy working in electronics. I finished a Bachelors in a field I did not want to work in, in Feb 2010, took care of my dying Grandma, and have volunteered at the VA Medical Center since that time. I h...

Shortnorthstudent, Do you go to MCI? I go to MCI in Newport News and the grading scale you are talking about is the same as mine.

Congrats!
