  1. Very confused at this point!

    enuf_already replied to wisconsin89's topic in General Students

    OP, now you know why the corrections job pays $19.37 an hour. Terrible hours, rotating shifts, inconsistent days off, working weekends and holidays with unpleasant people. Hey, this sounds like...

  2. Am I wrong from refusing to help a friend?

    enuf_already replied to Neywel120's topic in General Students

    Persuasive speech topic suggestions: -The benefits and value of doing your own homework. -why hanging onto friends who are users and manipulators is a bad choice -it is okay to refuse to "help" a...

  3. Falsely accused of med diversion

    enuf_already replied to kindia's topic in General Nursing

    That's scary! I hope they paid you for the rest of the

  4. Should I not look back at nursing ever again?

    enuf_already replied to nocturna's topic in General Students

    We only heard one side of the story. I believe some people fail clinical, not because their instructor doesn't do their part trying to teach them, but in some cases because the student isn't...

  5. Death by schedule

    enuf_already replied to Sisternorth's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    OP, is this a schedule that continues to rotate like this (work 5 off 1)? If so, I hope you are hourly and they don't forget to pay you time and a half for anything over 40 hours per week. I believe...

  6. Tattoos?

    enuf_already replied to heronurse's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Might be but from previous posts, he's not a

  7. How to handle Nursing school.

    enuf_already replied to guest723's topic in General Students

    Agreed! Some people are not going to be successful in college or a career that they may dream about doing because they truly do not have the skills necessary to achieve that dream. I would love to...

  8. Things you wish someone told you...

    enuf_already replied to NurseMedic28's topic in Emergency

    Only floated to the ER but I wish I had known that 1. I would see many things that no one who is not a nurse would believe. 2. Foreign objects seem to end up in strange places. 3. Humans do some...

  9. Am I wrong from refusing to help a friend?

    enuf_already replied to Neywel120's topic in General Students

    OP-your friend is taking a course you have not taken but expects you to drop everything and give her free tutoring? Some friendship. For those family members and friends who think you should neglect...

  10. Can a nurse be Disciplined in every state

    enuf_already replied to ontheupside's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I think part of the issue with this would be whether you hold an active license in a state or try to reinstate an expired license. For example, if I hold an active license in Michigan, but my New...

  11. Confused and needing advise

    enuf_already replied to Erm1234's topic in Nursing Career

    Unless you are independently wealthy, I'm not sure how you plan to volunteer and travel. Get a few years of experience, some money put aside, then go do those things you want to do at age 25 with 3...

  12. Nurses with Contracts

    enuf_already replied to JMR83's topic in General Nursing

    You've been a nurse for 6 months. The reason your current employer had you sign a contract with a penalty is twofold. First, they are investing a lot of money in you to train you and have you suddenly...

  13. Bleeding Tumor

    enuf_already replied to CGJay's topic in Oncology

    Actually, it's not better to ask nurses than doctors about a specific health issue for your wife. Per terms of service, we cannot give medical advice. It sounds like you care very much for her. Seek...

  14. PROBATION with RESTRICTED RN LICENSE - NOW RN REINSTATEMENT : FORMAL HEARING

    enuf_already replied to JC4me's topic in General Nursing

    Definitely more to this story. OP was terminated and found guilty by the board for unsafe nursing practice 2 years ago as a new grad according to the story. Was the OP still in orientation? How late...

  15. How long did it take you to take the NCLEX?

    enuf_already replied to whatwasithinking75's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Took me two days--6 hours each day. (2 hours for each of the three subjects for the day). Every question on the paper was answered with a #2 pencil. Then after two days of testing, I drove home...

  16. Accusations

    enuf_already replied to applesxoranges's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I say unless she can give you the actual patient's name or medical record number to verify, it is a non-issue. I might be bold enough to tell her that next time she decides to critique documentation,...

  17. Would outpatient be a good fit for me?

    enuf_already replied to awilliamsesu's topic in General Nursing

    I hate to burst your bubble but if you are doing a specialty clinic or even a med-surg clinic, "the unknown" can show up or call at any time. I had 20 years ICU experience before going to a hospital...

  18. Brigham nurses threaten to strike. Paid $106,000 on average, demand more.

    enuf_already replied to RockMay's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    Because it is their right to ask for whatever they want to. It doesn't mean they will get everything they ask for. Strikes are about negotiations and compromise. They may be willing to forgo salary...

  19. Autism Nursing?

    enuf_already replied to akcw1981's topic in Developmental Disabilities

    I know of several children's hospitals that have this kind of program. Some are staffed with nurses, child life specialists, or other team members who are well versed working with patients with autism...

  20. Failed nclex 10 times should i try again???????

    enuf_already replied to ekb2011's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Wait...your original post was on 6/11 asking if you should retest and you took the test and passed on 6/11? Why did you make it sound as if you were debating about testing and wanted advice where to...

  21. Failed nclex 10 times should i try again???????

    enuf_already replied to ekb2011's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I think this post is real. If you look up OP's posting history, you will see that he/she reported having failed multiple times previously. This is also not someone who just became a member today....

  22. Failed nclex 10 times should i try again???????

    enuf_already replied to ekb2011's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    OP, to clarify, you graduated 10.5 years ago and took your last test in August 2015 after your mom died? What happened with the 9 tests before this? I'm sorry about the loss of your mom. You...

  23. The elephant in the room

    enuf_already replied to Kssrn404's topic in General Nursing

    What's wrong with the truth? You could say you were afforded the opportunity to be a stay at home mom but you always missed and planned to go back to nursing. Now that your children are independent,...

  24. Worst/Best thing a nursing instructor ever said to you?

    enuf_already replied to CryandNurseOn's topic in General Nursing

    Probably a room for her with nothing but male nurses [emoji6] I graduated over 35 years ago and our instructors loved the males in our class--but there were only 3 of

  25. ITT Tech?

    enuf_already replied to MA_Davis's topic in School, College Programs

    They may have technically only had 60 questions that counted towards the passing mark but I assure you, they got the full 75 questions or more. So I guess now everyone who passes in 75 can brag that...
