  1. "Eat their young"

    Horseshoe replied to rolvue's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Same here, but nevertheless, this incident doesn't even REMOTELY rise to the level of bullying or nurses eating their young.

  2. "Eat their young"

    Horseshoe replied to rolvue's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    This kind of thing is why experienced nurses "roll their eyes" so much on this forum. You were NOT bullied. No one ate their young. You were simply corrected on something. Even if you prefer that...

  10. EQ Versus IQ

    Horseshoe replied to madwife2002's topic in General Nursing

  11. Union gave away random drug testing

    Horseshoe replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Ok, but it's not your hospital. When you own your own business, you get to call the shots. Otherwise, you either go with it or vote with your feet. It seems maybe something specifically related to...

  13. Medical Quackery: Let's talk.

    Horseshoe replied to Spidey's mom's topic in Nursing News

    I saw that piece the other day. The reporter confronted the "pastor," and he called the reporter a total "piece of %$#@." That's really Godly, huh?
