    Selfie replied to Icareaboutthis's topic in General Nursing

    Selfie replied to nurse2033's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It's maddening. I think if we fast forward six months, we will see a completely different set of opinions expressed on this board. "All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed....

    Selfie replied to NurseQT's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    No. No. and HELL No. Your supervisor didn't even stick up for you. Why would you even put yourself in this position? You are feeling uneasy, and justifiably so. I'd call Monday, cancel, and say:...

    What's keeping you from quitting? This job will have little if any impact/influence on a future nursing career. I don't know if this is a hospital or nursing home, but If I really wanted to stay...

    Selfie replied to MyUserName,RN's topic in Home Health
