    Scheduled to Work A Holiday Not Assigned

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    After everything the OP has told us about her "boyfriend", he is inconsiderate & never thinks of her. I think the OP needs to cut back on work, ditch her boyfriend & focus on

    Scheduled to Work A Holiday Not Assigned

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    I still don't understand why you're working 2 jobs & thus working a whole month at a time. I don't see a need on your end, you're only burning yourself out. Why not just get *one* nursing job that...

    Is this homework? Or did you leave your common sense at home? Why would you leave *any* medication at the bedside?! *Especially* a

    OrganizedChaos replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Just continue to ignore calls & send the calls to voicemail. You have told someone multiple times "no". You don't even need to give them a reason. No mean

    Scheduled to Work A Holiday Not Assigned

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    Well that answered my question as to which job it was. While you're looking for a different nursing job, why don't you look for one that can take over hours for your tech job so you only have 1 job...

    Does anyone else ever envy their patients?

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    Which job was it that she scheduled to work a holiday where she wasn't originally suppose to? She should just quit her boyfriend & tech job. There's no reason to work her tech job. If she works...

    Does anyone else ever envy their patients?

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    OP, you need to drop your "boyfriend" & drop your second job. I don't know why you feel the need to work so much but even when I was single & childless I didn't work that much. There is no...

    How much do you pay for daycare?

    OrganizedChaos replied to SaltySarcasticSally's topic in General Nursing

    $400/mo for my 3 year old & he goes M-F. But I live in the country so the daycare isn't as fancy as those in the

    Would you let a relationship affect your job advancement?

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    But the OP has stated they only talk about work & her "boyfriend" doesn't discuss himself to her & she has found out things about him from coworkers. So it's not bits & pieces, it's pretty...

    Is it abandonment or taking a moment to collect myself?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Mollythenurse's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    If you have malpractice insurance, contact them. If not, like PPs said, contact an attorney. It doesn't sound like patient abandonment, but I don't know the laws in your state. HR/DONs/NMs love to...

    Where to start out of high school

    OrganizedChaos replied to Futurenurse969's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends where you're going in Texas. Obviously the bigger cities (Austin, Houston, Dallas & San Antonio) are inundated with new grads & jobs are hard to come by. If you're willing to...

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    The OP is not a CNA but an EKG tech. But yes she is getting paid as an EKG tech. I met my husband at work & worked with him while we dated but I didn't work with him long as I left the facility...

    Is it fianally time to retire NETY?

    OrganizedChaos replied to hppygr8ful's topic in General Nursing

    I hadn't heard of it either until I joined this forum either. I didn't know about the PVT until this forum either, call me ignorant.

    OrganizedChaos replied to smartnurse1982's topic in General Nursing

    But you don't know us personally nor can you verify our creditials. I would rather go to my doctor to get help about a serious medical issue such as yours & find a different job or case where you...

    OrganizedChaos replied to smartnurse1982's topic in General Nursing

    Instead of asking randoms on the Internet, why don't you see your doctor & change your job? That way you can fix your back & stop putting so much stress on it. You're only gonna make it worse...

    I've never had a monitored UDS. Unless by monitored you mean by the person stands outside the door. But if you mean someone watching me urinate, then no. I've never had someone come in the bathroom...

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    Your "boyfriend" keeps sending me weird vibes & red flags. He reminds me of one of my exes. He was a CNA, I didn't find out a lot about him from him initially & he was 10 years older than me...

    OrganizedChaos replied to purplegal's topic in General Nursing

    I just don't understand why it's so difficult to get anything personal out of him. That seems like a huge red flag to me. The one time I dated a guy who wouldn't open up to me he turned out to be...

    What person asks if the UDS is monitored or not??? The *only* people *I* know are those who are those who are trying to pass a drug test when they are dirty. Like my husband's best friend who does...
