    OrganizedChaos replied to jmichale's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I'm worried about that too because when I graduate from nursing school my current baby will be 2. Around that time I'll want to start trying for our second. But with how sick I've been this pregnancy...

    Most shocking thing you've seen another nurse do?

    OrganizedChaos replied to SuzieVN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Wow. I hope I never get that angry or burnt out to do that to a patient. I can't imagine the pain that poor man was in. I understand your hesitation. You were caught between a rock & a hard place....

    Job Market for RNs in Texas?

    OrganizedChaos replied to AFwife727's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Yeah, it's unfortunate but true. As an LVN I applied to soo many hospital openings & never got a job. I'm assuming they chose someone who had hospital experience over me. They would tell me to go...

    Starting a family during nursing school or after?

    OrganizedChaos replied to God'sLittleNurse2b's topic in General Students

    I'm currently pregnant & would suggest waiting until AFTER school. I know it seems like forever but trust me, it will be easier after school. I know there are women who went to school while...

    Are you bored at work?

    OrganizedChaos replied to lovedijah's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I've had my fair share of slow & predictable jobs, so I would much rather be busy. PDN comes to mind when I think of slow. Most of the patients I had didn't need much done. Then I worked at a...

    Is it okay that I hate LTC?

    OrganizedChaos replied to fresitachulita's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Geriatrics isn't my favorite area but if LTC could be staffed better, I would probably work there. But with all the work that has to be done, all the residents to care for & etc it's hard for me...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Guttercat's topic in General Nursing

    That's not a very funny joke & I have a dark & sarcastic sense of humor. I mean it's one thing of he actually hurt her but to wish evil on someone, even in jest, isn't funny. Like my husband...

    The only person I know who hasn't smoke/ate/used weed is my mom. I don't have an issue with it. If people wanna use it, good for them. It's like gay marriage, if you don't like it don't get it....
