    Am I wrong?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to CCS-CCT's topic in Nursing Career

    The other employees might do well to follow your lead and bail out of the bad situation you were smart enough to leave. Loyalty to co-workers shouldn't go so far as to remain in a place where you are...

    Just an observation: I've been poking around in the various threads here-in, and I have something to say! There is a "Club" that was started in August 2020, and its title is (was?) "The...

    What's something you never expected as a male nurse?

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Darth Practicus's topic in Men in Nursing

    Back in the early 1980's we had one of the first (to that facility) male nurses. All the old ladies were horrified with the thought of a MAN taking care of their 'personal' needs. But then, after the...

    Good Early Evening! Nice weather here -- in the low 70's, with sun and those enthusiastic March breezes. It's been a quiet day here, and I have done a lot of nothing. Hubby went over...

    When my father cracked a coconut with an ax, he was always careful to save the coconut "milk". It wasn't particularly tasty, but I never tasted saltiness. I think commercially bottled coconut water...

    So, I says, "How did you like the coconut water?" 'N he sez, "They didn't have any." HA! (I did not say.) I seriously doubt there is a coconut water shortage at CVS, or Food Lion, or...

    How to spot a bad nurse

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing
