  1. Is an Associate's degree a waste of time?

    Crazed replied to grantchatt's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Here's what I think: I think the letters after your name are only one small piece of the hiring puzzle. I think you need to evaluate your networking skills, your professional skills, your customer...

  2. Uniforms

    Crazed posted a topic in General Students

    Does anyone like their uniform? I find my uniform top to be one of the most uncomfortable and unflattering things ever made. Seriously I look like a love seat in the

  3. One set of scrubs?

    Crazed replied to MilliePieRN's topic in General Students

    I have one uniform at the moment. The pants they asked us to buy don't work for anyone so I was able to substitute them for a pair I purchased at Wal-Mart for 12.00 but the top is specific to the...

  4. Getting discouraged!

    Crazed replied to RNintraining72's topic in General Students

    I would check and see if your school has an emergency fund. This is exactly the type of thing that I think student nursing organizations need to be helping

  5. Pt's/visitors reading Fifty Shades of Grey???

    Crazed replied to neverbethesame's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    There are some fantastically hilarious reviews of this book online - most notably good

  6. "Friends" at work?

    Crazed replied to TX.RN.Shannon's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    My fiance works in a really large ED. They are pretty tight knit and honestly it makes me crazy. They go out after work, they know each other's dirty laundry, honestly the entire place is a hot bed of...

  7. Worried about my nursing supplies!?

    Crazed replied to Randi156's topic in General Students

  8. Patient Care And Customer Service Are Not The Same!

    Crazed replied to TheCommuter's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Well at least my extensive sales and customer service background will be advantageous to me when I finish my program. The ACA is filled with all kinds of wonderful things and I highly reccomend...

  9. First day of Nursing School..

    Crazed replied to dsf43's topic in General Students

    If you were in my program you'd always have a seat at my table. Why? We've known each other, for so long. Your feet are aching but you're too shy to say it Inside we both know what's been going on...

  10. Can you guys give me an example of a day in the life of a nursing student?

    Crazed replied to patriotprincess's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Okay then never mind. Maybe you just have one of those, "You remind me of someone I can't place," kind of faces. Thanks :) I'm a fan of humor

  13. Nursing student/Single mom

    Crazed replied to AnkleBitten's topic in General Students

    We received our clinical rotation about a month before class starting. The first semester we had very limited clinical experience. Second semester is twice a week all semester long. Yes, you'll need...

    Crazed replied to patriotprincess's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thanks. By the way you look eerily familiar if that's you in your avatar

  15. How to handle a situation

    Crazed replied to mikala3's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    People sleep on the job? I always thought that was some sort of sitcom myth. I would document everything, sit down during your off time, and compose an email to your manager regarding the issues....

  16. Can you guys give me an example of a day in the life of a nursing student?

    Crazed replied to patriotprincess's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    First days are pretty slow. Instructors tell you what you'll be doing, where you'll be going, and that they own you for the next semester. You'll have a break where some of your fellow nursing...

    Crazed replied to BitterSweetSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Pizza and sandwiches? Enough of this, I am going to organize a student uprising and demand better food during

  18. Nursing Classes: Are they really that bad?

    Crazed replied to JD87's topic in General Students

    I said open a book. I said nothing at all about studying and specifically mentioned research AND the ACA, which isn't covered in any of our current edition books. My point is even if you don't have to...

  19. Not impressed and depressed

    Crazed replied to BitterSweetSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't project your jealousies over my cookie okay? It was a packaged, generic, chips-a-hoy cookie with no milk. It was a lot like eating slightly sweetened cardboard that left crumbs everywhere. Not...

  20. Not impressed and depressed

    Crazed replied to BitterSweetSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Whoa. I don't know what school you go to but our orentation was like this: Nursing school is hard. No really, it's hard. Don't get pregnant in nursing school. Books are expensive. Nursing school is...

  21. Nursing Classes: Are they really that bad?

    Crazed replied to JD87's topic in General Students

    I'm a nontraditional student and I'll say it - those of you who are saying you hardly opened a book scare me. I suppose it depends on how you look at things. I could cram information into my brain,...

  22. LGBT Discrimination by Nurses?

    Crazed posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I always read everything with a skeptical eye, so when I saw this I thought, "This can't be the entire story." Thoughts? Read story in its entirety:...

  23. LGBT Discrimination by Nurses?

    Crazed replied to Crazed's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    First - thank you very much for the help. The story originated in my news feed on Facebook and I was looking for news coverage, but it appears this just happened recently. It seems to me when reading...

  24. Cheating in Pre-Reqs

    Crazed replied to xxyyzz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
