    I just mentioned Christmas bc someone said I was mad. I had a wonderful day and the responses were not going to make me mad. I give up. Lesson learned. Don't ever mention government even in passing...

    friendlyjane replied to friendlyjane's topic in General Nursing

    Gosh nurses, what did I do so wrong here? All I wanted was some view points on what y'all see going on in hospitals when it comes to jobs. All I said was that I don't trust the government projections...

  8. failing a class and retaking it

    friendlyjane replied to Yardena7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Really depends on the school. If they have a policy of letting people retake classes and taking the highest grade they will do that. The school I am going to apply to lets people retake prerequisites...

    friendlyjane replied to friendlyjane's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks. I have seen people do this to others post, they just take one thing about it and go off on it. I never understood why they do this. If I see something weird or strange about some post I read I...

  11. Will it ever get better out there?

    friendlyjane replied to friendlyjane's topic in General Nursing

    I really don't know why this is becoming about government. I just asked a question and mentioned the government once about how their info just does not jive with the real world in nursing and jobs....

  12. Will it ever get better out there?

    friendlyjane replied to friendlyjane's topic in General Nursing

    Lol. I guess that sounds strange if you put it that way, but I am smart enough to wade through the responses and take what I need from them. The government just over complicates things and I really...

    friendlyjane replied to friendlyjane's topic in General Nursing

    Yes. My sister is a nurse at a rural hospital about an hour from where i live. I really would not want to but if I was desperate I would ask for her to help me get a job. I hate even writing that out....

  14. Will it ever get better out there?

    friendlyjane replied to friendlyjane's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks y'all. I know no one can see the future, I guess I am just scared that I will not be able to get a job after so much hard work. I am not totally naive to the role of the bedside nurse. I was...

    friendlyjane replied to SuperNova153's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ok. You need to find a college that puts a lot of weight in other things besides gpa. I am still completing my prerequisites and am going to do a traditional bsn program but the university I want to...

  17. Am I being unrealistic? Is nursing maybe not for me?

    friendlyjane replied to beckyboo80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    True. My point is really not to cause friction at all but to just point out that many aspects of nursing are specialized and what ever skills are need in a certain area those are what developes. I...

    friendlyjane replied to beckyboo80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm still getting my pre-reqs but I do have some insite on the skill set of L&D nurses. Let me say first that most all other nurses could not do what l&d nurses do. They are awesome and take...

  22. A Bathroom Reminiscence

    friendlyjane replied to tokebi's topic in General Nursing

    She probably did it for the son she had left. How scared would any mother be to see their children die and live through that. She did it for her son so he had a chance, a chance to be a good man. What...

  23. Almost done with pre-reqs!

    friendlyjane replied to jilly_beans's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Although I do not know your family life, with determination and some kind of smarts you can do it. You have smarts so the rest is up to you. I will say that having a family makes it hard to do two...

  25. Anyone know of any Associates programs here that don't require pre-requisites

    friendlyjane replied to nursefan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You will have to take pre-reqs before the program starts or co-reqs while you are in the program. Pretty sure every ASN program requires some kind of math, an English comp, A&P, Micro, and...
