    My friend is still looking for work

    She said she joined AN WAAAY back when she was in nursing school because she wasn't sure that she wanted to be a nurse. ? But I don't think she logs on often. Since I had my son I feel like there has...

    My friend is still looking for work

    She always has an excuse for something. Together her & her boyfriend have 5 cats & she refuses to lie about the number they have. I've done it before & never had a problem. She just acts...

    My friend is still looking for work

    Her mom apparently has oil money because they're drilling on her land. Her mom even offered to help her & get boyfriend buy a house. I think she won't ever get a job as nurse. She doesn't have...

    My friend is still looking for work

    She doesn't have any loans, her mom paid for school. She turned down the job because of the two year agreement. When she did that she essentially blacklisted herself from that hospital. I thinks...

    I want to tell her how it is but she is SO depressed that I fear if I tell her it might push her over the

    My friend is still looking for work

    I do need a break from her. All she does is drain me. She will send me multiple, long texts about how bad things are going. I've ran out of sympathy. I don't know why she even applied for that job...

    My friend is still looking for work

    Update: She was offered a position in the town I live in, but she turned it down. The job had a 2 year commitment/$2500 sign on bonus. We even offered her lodging so she could stay & work there....

    Inducing vs. Waiting

    What would you suggest? I know inducing can cause a long a painful labor & could possibly lead to a c section. So would you suggest to a patient to wait until it happens

    Inducing vs. Waiting

    I ended up being induced at 37x4 weeks. But I had severe n/v, couldn't keep anything down then I had a seizure & they admitted me. So my OB thought it was best to induce me. I honestly wish I...

    Unsure of wanting kids

    I just had my first, he was a surprise baby. I thought much like you. I want to focus on me, have me time & not be responsible for anyone. I liked spending time with other people's kids because I...

    STAY AWAY DROM DLSI

    I know a former coworker who is going through them. I didn't want to say anything negative but once she started talking about how they provide study materials I just shook my head. Hopefully she does...

    Are your choice of scrubs childish?

    Pretty much what the PP said. I haven't worked anywhere that had a mandated uniform so since I usual work peds I wear what is acceptable for the job. I think regardless of what nursing I do I couldn't...

    Is Pregnancy During Nursing School Doable?

    I'll update my situation. I went to the ER last Friday for n/v, I ended up having a seizure & they admitted me. I was induced today at 37.4, my baby had his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck...

    Drug Seekers

    I don't work in the ER but I heard this lovely convo. So I went into the ER with n/v x 3 days & 36 weeks pregnant. I fill out the paperwork & wait for the triage nurse to get me & send me...

    The Worst Hospital Visitor I've Ever Seen

    I would've kicked that man out after he made that comment about killing the dogs. Not only do I feel horrible for the dogs but the woman as well. She's trying to recover & the expletive of a...

    Inducing vs. Waiting

    That's awesome! I feel like C/S are just the norm now. I had a bunch of friends who were pregnant around the same time as me & ALL of them had

    Inducing vs. Waiting

    Oh of course. I mean if the patient is healthy it makes sense to wait it out. But what if the patient had a difficult pregnancy & has been sick off & on

    My friend is still looking for work

    I have officially stopped caring. I gave her every suggestion I could & she doesn't do anything. Hospitals have their pick of nurses, why should they choose her over a new grad? I would feel bad...
