Make up...?
Are doctors required to wear make up when doing their residency? What about male nurses-do they have to wear makeup or dress in drag? Let me remind you of what century we're living in here! Can you say "feminist"?

Make up...?
Have your instrucors heard of human rights? You have a right to not wear makeup if you so feel!!!!!!!!! And tons of it if it turns your crank!!!!!!!

Police Killed Our Patient
Look up "Ipperwash Inquiry" on the net to discover a horrendous case of police brutality-the sad thing is the health care system in that area is not much better. I've worked there and if ever there was a situation of institutionalized racisim it would be there. How do you feel about shooting an unarmed native in the back during a peaceful sitin (land claim protest) Makes you ashamed to be caucasian

Date MD's??
Ive dated several docs-they seem to have poorly developed social skills-pass-Im more into real estate developers, MBAs etc-people with real money and more developed social skills-who wants a man with a god like ego ,that works those kind of hours? I find MBAs are more vivacious and have a more fun loving attitude-less ego. (do you want the CEO or the nerd from your high school chemistry class? A Phd does not take the dork out of these guys)

Nurses are not "allowed"
the doc I mentioned was reported to mgmt but never the authorities. he was reprimanded @ work by being forced to take an anger management class (which didn't "take" by the way) if it were me he would have seen me in court. I am amazed every day at the behaviour he is allowed to get away with.

Nurses are not "allowed"
At my old job they removed the charting table because pts families would see us sitting there charting, reconcilliating MARS etc and complain to the nurse manager about how lazy we were "just sitting there" so we got to do that part of our job standing up. Thank god I left. Now I work at an institution that employs doctors that find it appropriate to yell and berate nurses on a regular basis. One in particular even threw a phone at a nurse in ICU- he's still working there. They also frequently refuse to return pages when they are on call @ hs (even when your pt has a SBP of 240)

Relationships and Nursing school
When I went to nursing school I paid a firend to have relations with my husband on a weekly basis-it gave me time to study. It brought out the compassionate side of me and made me a better nurse. After, we moved far away

What Nursing school are you in? Show your pride!
