8. Not impressed and depressed

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

   I know that this will sound mean, and I'm sorry. My first impression of you from the OP is that you have a chip on your shoulder and that won't get you anywhere. Be positive and let your work speak...

    badwolf replied to tenjuna's topic in General Students

    Haha, I haven't even started nursing school and I get this kind of stuff all the time. I was meeting friends to go on a road trip and the first thing my friend said to me, at 7am, was, "I have blood...

    badwolf replied to Beautifulvirgo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you want to know how to keep your name clean, in any job, go to work and do your job! Don't worry about social stuff. The patient thing seems like a no-brainer to me. Socializing with coworkers...
