  1. A Public Thank You

    Dogen replied to WellThatsOod's topic in General Nursing

    I was going to post something about how when I was a regular dumb guy I thought Midol was some mythical anti-PMS drug, until I found out what was in it. Then I realized I didn't actually know what was...

  3. A Public Thank You

    Dogen replied to WellThatsOod's topic in General Nursing

    I drove an '04 Subaru Impreza like that. She looked like I'd driven her to hell and back, but never did anything but replace breaks and the serpentine belt. Last summer she just sort of fell apart....

  4. Side business ideas for nurses

    Dogen replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Holy cow, you're amazing! If I weren't a diabetic and those weren't sweet death to me, I would totally buy one from

  5. Whatdaya think this is?

    Dogen replied to adventure_rn's topic in Nursing Humor

  6. Tattoos!

    Dogen replied to mmbucklerky's topic in General Students

    Another reason I love the west coast. One of my hospitals here recently changed their dress code so only offensive tattoos had to be covered, which was kind of officially allowing what everyone did...

  7. To medicate or not to medicate

    Dogen replied to SuperMomBob's topic in Patient Medications

    Awesome

  8. Side business ideas for nurses

    Dogen replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    They had a sink that had water running to it but no drain. The sink was used to pour out extra milk, rinse utensils, pour out extra espresso, etc., and emptied into a bucket that had to be emptied...

  9. Side business ideas for nurses

    Dogen replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    A friend of mine had the idea to start a business called "Resolutions," that started as a gym on New Years Day, stayed that way for about a month, and then slowly turned into a coffee shop or a bar...

  10. Side business ideas for nurses

    Dogen replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    What exactly is a hair wrap? The coffee stand on the ground floor of my building was closed by the health department (NBD, I only got coffee there everyday for two years), and now all anyone talks...

  11. A Public Thank You

    Dogen replied to WellThatsOod's topic in General Nursing

    Only if you can catch me. Wait, I drive a Hyundai, you could catch me in a golf

  12. A Public Thank You

    Dogen replied to WellThatsOod's topic in General Nursing

    P.S. Ood, I like that someone rewarded you for being nice and fun. That's cool.

    Dogen replied to WellThatsOod's topic in General Nursing

    Can I call you Musty?

  14. Whatdaya think this is?

    Dogen replied to adventure_rn's topic in Nursing Humor

    It's a broken person. So, my first thought is the ED. Or a glazier's office (the glass man!). Which seems like an odd thing to have in a hospital. I like the sign, but it seems like a sign that isn't...

  15. Poll: Nurse and law enforcement couples

    Dogen replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    So that's why so many nurses want to open bakeries as a side

  16. Poll: Nurse and law enforcement couples

    Dogen replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    If you don't work in the ER, how else are you going to meet a police officer to marry? You gotta do what you gotta

  17. Side business ideas for nurses

    Dogen replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know how true it is, but I understand most escorts are hired by older men, so maybe if your client were taking a nitrate and wanted to take sildenafil to help enjoy his time with

  18. Side business ideas for nurses

    Dogen replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    For some reason half the nurses I know - across two states and three hospitals - talk about opening a bakery. I'm not sure why that's common. I like the idea of a side business where your experience...

  19. Special Snowflake!

    Dogen replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    NET...O? NET...M? I'm not sure which unfairly maligned age group I belong to, but as soon as I figure it out I'm making an acronym and then you'll be

  20. Special Snowflake!

    Dogen replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    What are you trying to say about me as a clinician? You trying to start something? Because I will straight up run the hell

  21. To medicate or not to medicate

    Dogen replied to SuperMomBob's topic in Patient Medications

    That would be awesome, but it sounds like maybe you work LTC, because that doesn't sound like something we could ever do. Well, psych assessments you can put off, but not physical. When I was in...

  22. Special Snowflake!

    Dogen replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    Of course he is. You don't get away with not doing ADLs and playing candy crush unless you're super

  23. Special Snowflake!

    Dogen replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    I'm the sort of weirdo that didn't start looking at profiles until I noticed people were looking at mine. When I filled it in I figured no one would read

  24. I Hate People (my rant)

    Dogen replied to AlyaMF's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    And if you're beating a dead horse it better be because you love beating dead horses, not because you're getting paid to do it. Because if you're beating a dead horse for a paycheck then you shouldn't...

  25. Staffing a unit

    Dogen replied to GM1928's topic in General Nursing

    My unit staffing matrix stops at two RNs and a CNA, from 10 down to whatever the census would have to be to close the unit (never happens). At 12 we'd have 3 RNs, no CNA. I don't pretend to understand...
