    If you didn't have to bite your tongue?

    Emergent replied to DesiDani's topic in General Nursing

    When more than one person has the same perception it's time to look in the mirror. But, I see that you aren't really receptive to it so we might as well stop discussing it. Maybe you can start a...

    Covid-19 was definitely the straw that broke my back. I'm done with nursing, I am working at a farm store now for $15 an hour and I am so grateful for it. I also refuse to ever be a patient in the...

    RN With Contamination OCD - Please Help!

    Emergent replied to FSZ Student Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's important to maintain one's general health, with proper diet and a lot of rest. Once I got the vaccine was totally loose about the precautions because I figured, if I was exposed to a...

    Dying And Disputing Covid While Seeking Treatment from

    Emergent replied to guest1163268's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Emergent replied to guest1163268's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I don't think we have much evolution these days. In fact, the medical system contributes to the degradation of the human gene pool. You basically have more functional people having smaller families...

    Emergent replied to guest1163268's topic in Disaster Preparation

    People make their choices and live with the consequences. If a person has a stubborn personality they are going to show it. This is nothing new, we've had people who can't control their eating habits,...

    Emergent replied to FSZ Student Nurse's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not a germaphobe, and I do think germaphobes are a little extreme sometimes. But, if doing these rituals helps you feel more comfortable, it's not like it's going to hurt anybody unless you are...

    I have an idea, let's treat our core staff like crap, let's put up with our laziest staff members, let's drive hard-working people away, then we can hire high-priced agency nurses, that should solve...

    Lost Item

    Emergent replied to FalconFlight's topic in General Nursing

    I think you're being superstitious. You probably lost it because you had a lot on your mind. I used to wear my nursing pin to one job that I had, and I left it on top of my car or it fell off in the...

    You have to be tough to be in nursing. It's a rough profession with a lot of rough people. It's high pressure, and you definitely can't survive if you aren't a little
