    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to gj101's topic in General Students

    Were you not aware of who your wife was or what she wanted before you got married? I am by no means making any accusations, I am just wondering if you two had a frank discussion about individual...

    If you'd care to share a bit about your experience of relocating and practicing in another province. I would love to learn whatever I can from someone who has already done it

    CNO & practising outside of ontario

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to CaffeinePOQ4HPRN's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I already have the application for the province I will be moving to. I am just wondering if CNO charges any fees to submit the verification request. I would call CNO but it's a long weekend in Canada...

    Nursing: In terms of personal satisfaction, even money has become a poor motivator :(

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN posted a topic in General Nursing

    Lackluster career prospects. I DO NOT like gerontology. I'm tired. The endless enemas, the endless urine and feces everywhere (oftentimes thrown at you), the endless changing of adult diapers (excuse...

    what can you do when a nurse sets you up

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to oatmeal's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Oh god, we had a bit$h like that where I (infrequently) work. We all got together and put pressure on our manager to address the situation as we considered her actions to be creating an unsafe...

    2015 Current LPN Pay

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to ipraz4him's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    That pay rate is pitiful. $20/hr and under is just despicable! I can't believe they can justify to set the pay so low for what we do. Where I live bus drivers make more money than that (and more money...

    Nurse considering law school

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to kristie778's topic in General Nursing

    DO it! If I had the grades to get into law school I would do it ASAP. With the current climate of the nursing profession and lackluster career prospects... I think law or anything you choose to do...

    No babies for this NICU nurse

    Omg, if we could only be as honest with these types of people as they deserve. But we can't. Oh

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to angrykitten's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    Use the above quote ad nauseum. Say it to any and everyone who asks. It's the perfect thing to say. It's kind awful to be put in that position in the first place... Having to explain your plans for...

    Nurses and their pens

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    Pens are to nurses what cigarettes are to prison inmates. I've seen nurses get into arguments over allegations of "pen stealing" and it can be quite a show... but they're totally serious about DTMP...

    Precisely! It's clear the OP came here looking for a pat on the back for his/her pathological behaviour. Seriously, this person needs a second or third job 'cause they have waaaay too much time on...

    If you truly felt comfortable with what you did "and would do it again" you would not feel the incessant need to keep defending your actions and attacking contrary opinions. You sound so naïve,...

    Why do you think nurses leave the profession?

    CaffeinePOQ4HPRN replied to Nacki's topic in Nursing Professionalism
