  1. I love this job

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to JackdLPN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Maybe not, but he's definitely in the wrong category. Maybe he should have posted this under the Male/MenNurses thread???

  2. I love this job

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to JackdLPN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    The OP bought the smallest scrub top that he could comfortably squeeze into, and now, he's walking down the halls in 'The Rock/John Cena' mode...flexing while he struts. Just wait until he gets that...

  4. Can an LPN work as a Surgical Tech?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to surge0584's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    You lost me here. Do you mean, in your current facility where you work as a CNA? If that's what you mean, you will only be able to work as an RN if your employer promotes you into an RN position. If...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to krissy220's topic in LPN to RN

  6. Has Excelsior figured out a way to improve CPNE wait time yet?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to AlleycatLady's topic in Excelsior College

  7. Going back to school in my 50's

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to Wille78's topic in Study Tips for Students's Share Tips

    I received my RN license 7 years ago after 24 years of LPN service. I was 44 when I started and fearful that I no longer had what it took to excel in school. I had to read things repeatedly just to...

  8. New hospital, but not a new nurse blues...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to abnormal_saline's topic in General Nursing

    I think the majority of this could just be misguided perception on both sides. Perhaps you allowed the day nurses to invoke or embed their opinions of the night shift nurses onto you. If you speak the...

  11. How do I get out?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to KalipsoRed21's topic in General Nursing

    You are not stuck. It's like that person believed to be drowning when all he or she has to do is stand up. Years ago, I started living below my means. I did an assessment (that's one of the very first...

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to AlleycatLady's topic in Excelsior College

    Thanks!!! But, I'm not in there yet. I'm told that I am, but....I'm still on the outer side of the gate. Definitely not a walk in the park trying to become a VA employee. This is a different location,...

  17. Has Excelsior figured out a way to improve CPNE wait time yet?

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to AlleycatLady's topic in Excelsior College

    I would be taking a couple of general education exams separate from EC (that would apply towards a BSN) during that 12-month downtime if I were you. You could check any college's BSN prereq...

  21. Hello I need help finding a job!

    NotMyProblem MSN replied to wandwaving's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Have you overcome your driving issues yet? If not, employment options are limited. Was the driving the reason for the loss of employment? If it played a role, I'd suggest you get a grip on that first...
