    Have you ever been "ghosted" by an employer after accepting a job offer?

    Lunah replied to Peachpit's topic in General Nursing

    I have seen this more commonly recently in the work-from-home/remote job realm. People get ghosted on interviews and jobs as well. Very unprofessional and

    Where do I go from here?

    Lunah replied to PDRN's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    What about a medspa-type setting? I am trying to think of places that don't accept insurance, period. Places that are out of pocket. Maybe those places that do B12 injections and vitamin

    Working From Home: What's it really like? A Day In The Life Of A Clinical Appeals Nurse

    Lunah posted a topic in General Nursing

    Your alarm goes off at 6:45 am. You groggily reach for your glasses, roll out of bed, and go to the kitchen to get the coffee brewing. Shortly before 7 am you open your office door and 30 seconds...

    Should RaDonda Vaught Have Her Nursing License Reinstated?

    Lunah replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Insurance companies require an active license for RN positions. Any other job is just a job, not a nursing position. This is going to come up on a background check or Google search, so she will not...

    Lunah replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    You are an experienced nurse. Do NOT just accept a pay cut without negotiating. The appropriate time to negotiate is after you have been offered the position. Google the term "gratitude sandwich" if...

    Nocturnal Muscle Cramps

    Lunah replied to Danielle BSN's topic in Patient Education

    Yeah, the first thing my IM doc did was to send me to the lab. Of course, my mag and K and everything else were stone cold normal! Which is fine, at least my "yoga toes" work for me at

    Nocturnal Muscle Cramps

    Using Shopping to Cope with Work

    Lunah replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Yoga is definitely an amazing outlet, I am a big fan. However, just wondering - are you putting your job at risk, even unintentionally, but leaving so much? Is this a passive way of getting fired? I...

    Has anyone ever had a supervisor leave and then go work for them elsewhere?

    Lunah replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing
