  1. Easter/Passover

    Does anyone celebrate both? I do, and was just curious if anyone else did, as
  2. Convicted of murder as a teen and now a nurse

    From what I have read, this person has been a nurse for several years now. Why is this bothering you
  3. Childhood Obesity: Breaking the Cycle

    While I agree that childhood obesity is on the rise, I don't think that having restrictions on television advertisements is the answer. Who determines what is appropriate and what isn't? How far...
  4. Many of the nursing homes in my area are transitioning to 12 hour shifts. I think that it is going to become more and more common, for many places, and not just hospitals. I personally like the 12...
  5. I hate night shift

    To the OP, I was just curious if you have separation issues from your husband, when he has to work and it's your day off. If you do, then that could be a problem. But, if you only feel this way...

  7. Does. Anyone like their CNA job??

    I am a CNA and work in a hospital setting. Most days, I do like my job. I have been a CNA for 12 years. Around here, it is very hard for a brand new CNA to get work in a hospital, unless they are...
  8. Accusations of verbal abuse! Now what happens?

    Without details, it's hard to form an
  9. Should I let my manager beat me at Trivia Crack

    Well, you would certainly have an advantage over her. You're alive, and
  10. White pants. Freaking white pants.

    When I was doing my CNA clinicals and classes, we had to wear white pants. I didn't think too much about it. I invested a little bit into the scrubs, to get a good quality pant, that wasn't see...
  11. That is how it's been at any place I have ever worked too. Multiple sick days in a row, counted as one sick day. If employees were sick for three or more days in a row, they had to bring in a...
  12. Yesterday

    I'm surprised that it took that long for you to find a person that declared themselves an atheist. Although I am a Christian, I have met many folks over the years, that weren't. It doesn't scare me,...
  13. Again, I was just trying to make a point. But I can see that you missed
  14. Although I am not a bible scholar, I grew up with a religious background. Many of my family members are involved in the church. I myself, attend church when I am able. I am also involved in a bible...
  15. I have come to the conclusion that I work in a very boring environment. Granted, I live and work in a very small town, so I guess my coworkers and I don't have access to "the finer things in life"....
  16. This sounds like it was taken directly from Wilkapedia. If it was, Wilkapedia is not known as a very reliable source of information. Schizophrenia is a illness that affects the brain and can be...
  17. I don't mind when folks discuss religion at work. In all honesty though, it's not really an issue where I work. Coworkers might talk about a dish that they took to a potluck church supper that...
  18. I think that the disability program was started for a good reason. But over the years, the system has been abused. I think that there needs to be a stronger clarification of what justifies as a true...

    I was going to say "weird", but "interesting" is more
  20. So Frustrated I Could Cry..

    My workplace has a strict policy of missing time, especially when it falls on a weekend. If a person wants a particular weekend off, that they would normally be scheduled to work, there is a certain...
  21. Nurses, do you exercise?

    I try to do some form of exercise on a daily basis. Whether it be walking, biking or yoga. I tend to get bored with the same type of exercise every day, so I like to mix the routine up a bit. My...
  22. I take a long ride on my
  23. Of Nursing, Nudity and Public Perception

    To the OP; your opinions of nurses are very juvenile. I suspect that you are a troll, who is getting bored with summer vacation. I noticed that you just joined AN today. Why? Just so you could...
  24. nursing & tattoos

    I don't have any tattoos, and have never wanted one. To me, they just look painful. That being said, I think that it's more important on what's on the inside of a person then what is on the outside....
  25. Keep my cell phone......or landline

    I have both a cell phone and a land line. Work doesn't have my cell phone number, and if they need to get in touch with me, they call my land phone and leave a message. I live in a fairly remote...
