  4. About apologizing

    I suppose there are people that can never admit when they are wrong or have a hard time saying their sorry. I just move on and know I may be entitled to an apology from this person but don't let it...

  8. CNA exam skills part???

    You usually show hand washing as a skill first. After that whenever it is required you just say I was my hands. I am not familiar with the booklet you mentioned, but you should follow the steps as...

    Free is hard to pass up. I had to pay
  11. Need opinions on what to do for future nursing

    The CNA course would not be a waste in my opinion. Do you have to pay for the class. If you become s CNA you can work as a CNA while going to school for your RN. Valuable learning and on job...
  12. The co workers need to just know life is not always fair. As my hubby says....let them pound sand. I'd just enjoy your promotion and ignore the negativity. You apparently earned it. Don't let others...

    Hoping you will pass with flying
  16. less than 2 week notice for these reasons

  17. If you can not find a job as a CNA right now because of your age than just holds off till your 18. You'll still have plenty of time to get CNA experience while your taking your nursing classes. Also...
  18. CNA training

    All you can do is try and find some place that might give free classes. But they may be hard to find or non existent. If you really want to be a CNA just try your best to save up to take a class....

  21. When do going back to school STOP!!

    Calivianya you make some good points, but I'm sure your brother had to go to some schooling to get where he is at. Even if it was some leadership classes the company paid for perhaps. I'm sure he had...
  22. How to deal with this?

    I'd explain in detail everything you did to try to find out what happened but that there just is no confirmed reason for
  23. what to do?

    Give them the two weeks notice. Its much much better then giving a phone call and say Iquit. Though what might hurt you is the short time period. Some places might not like that you only put in 6...
  24. Travel Company Saying I can be reported

    How long is this assignment for? If it is a short period of time...say 2 weeks I'd just finish out the assignment and then never work for them again. Unfortunately the only things that the company has...
