    babynurselsa replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think the issue is about asking someone to make a change. The issue is a false sense of entitlement that an individual deems they are more worthy than another for special considerations....

    I don't know what to think about this?

    babynurselsa replied to Janlynn's topic in Emergency

    babynurselsa replied to Marie_LPN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    StikyNoteRighter, I think you are missing the point. If you go to work as a nurse in a hospital your expectation is completely unrealistic. You will be very lucky in some places just to get one or...
