    Note taking in class....how do you do it.

    Julius Seizure replied to Valcorie34's topic in General Students

    The way I see it, you have a few options. I dont know you, so I cant comment on which is best for you personally. #1 - Tell them that you will work as a CNA only if they agree to a shift bonus of $xx...

    What do you mean you're sick? How dare you!

    Julius Seizure replied to Purple_roses's topic in Nursing Humor

    Calling in period should be enough. It is MY business if I have called in because I am going to the ER, or because I have a hang nail. Or because I need to take my car in for repairs, or because my...

    Julius Seizure replied to enchantedlife's topic in General Students

    You sound kind of like me :) Go to the search bar and search for the word "introvert". There are multiple threads about this exact topic. Yes, introverts can be nurses, and good ones, too. And you...
