    SoulShine75 replied to misstaz25's topic in General Nursing

    I'm glad your meeting went well and I'm sorry you have to write those stupid papers. I'd just take it as a lesson learned and lay low around her from now on. Don't give her any reason to pick on you...

    SoulShine75 replied to misstaz25's topic in General Nursing

    My advice. Be certain to choose your words carefully with her when you speak to her. It sounds as though she likes controlling situations, so don't give her any reason to think you mean disrespect or...

    SoulShine75 replied to misstaz25's topic in General Nursing

    I also live in KY and they have do have smoking booths outside the hospital. I guess for when it's raining and cold out. The main reason they did this was because they banned smoking on the grounds so...

    SoulShine75 replied to misstaz25's topic in General Nursing

    Wow...first of all let me say that I understand this discrimination, as do all the smokers out there. I am a smoker and as much as I want to quit...it's difficult. Being a nurse herself she should at...

  5. Got someone mad at me

    SoulShine75 replied to TazziRN's topic in General Nursing

    I agree, but you find those know-it-alls everywhere. I know this girl, we'll call her one-uper because not matter what you say, do, whatever, she's done it better and knows more than you. She's works...

    SoulShine75 replied to GardenDove's topic in General Nursing

    Some people just like listening to themselves talk. It sounds to me like she's looking for sympathy and needing some validation. Maybe what you could do in order to avoid her rants is to jokingly...

  10. Rules for the ER (long)

    SoulShine75 replied to EDValerieRN's topic in Emergency

    SoulShine75 replied to Scrubz's topic in General Students

  12. School uniforms.. ugh..

    SoulShine75 replied to Scrubz's topic in General Students

    SoulShine75 replied to RNStudentJJC's topic in General Students
