   Gabie Baby replied to lydiasmom's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

   I don't dislike dieticians, quite the opposite, actually. I have never had any problem with a dietician. My problem is with you thinking Nursing pays well and that Nursing is about the money. You...

   Gabie Baby replied to tatgirl's topic in General Nursing

   So you read into the OP something that was not there, you assumed other behavior at the ER, too. No, Meow, you are definitely not (not "probably", as opposed to "probly" not) writing for your thesis....

6. just a little question...

   Gabie Baby replied to moosenurse's topic in General Nursing

7. Re-training to become a nurse--is it worth the sacrifice?

   Gabie Baby replied to GraceNotes's topic in General Nursing

   No one can really answer this for you. You are wise to consider all the pros and cons. I will pray for God to guide you. If you do go for it, you will have about 12 or 16 years to work before you...

8. Getting Paid $$ for End-of-Shift Overtime?

   Gabie Baby replied to nyforlove's topic in General Nursing

    Gabie Baby replied to Pitbullgirl's topic in General Nursing

    They can go get their own notes. Like school kids, isn't it? I love the way we are treated. We handle lives of others but can't be trusted to take care of our own health. Which is all she's doing...

    Gabie Baby replied to tatgirl's topic in General Nursing
