  1. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    It's interesting that you conveniently left out the new nurses that also didn't have their's done. I'm not going to feel bad for being proud of myself. It was no diss or malintent toward anyone. You...

  2. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

  3. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    I'm aware of that. And I'm stating what has been expressed to me by other seasoned nurses on the unit. You, however, are theorizing about something that I'm not willing to debate as I didn't state my...

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

  5. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    I wonder what constitutes as "long"? Mine was supposed to be 12 weeks (I think). I'm not sure because I got pulled out of orientation early due to staff shortages. Haha. I didn't feel tossed to the...

  9. Black and Job Hunting

    Guest575949 replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Such an excellent comment. Some of the people in this thread are so very disappointing as humans, and they don't even realize it.

  10. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    That sounds awful. We don't get any shift-diff at my job for weekends, because every 3rd is mandated, but we do get time and a half for all holidays recognized by the hospital. Our weekends are always...

  11. People really need to stop coming into nursing

    Guest575949 replied to DUDERNGUY's topic in General Nursing

    Guest575949 replied to katie6126's topic in General Students

    Guest575949 replied to katie6126's topic in General Students

    Guest575949 replied to buckeyegirl19's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Cheerup BuckeyeGirl! It happens, but I'm confident you'll do well the next time! You were right on the fence. Use that CRP to see where your weak areas were. I passed on my first try last year. Here...

  16. Cheating in an FNP program

    Guest575949 replied to elise1180's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You've received some sound advice here already, and my 2cents is much of the same- we'd all like to tell ourselves that "the cheaters will see judgement day come Boards." However, that's not always...

  21. ICU pay differential?

    Guest575949 replied to Mr. Murse's topic in Critical Care
