  1. Evolution and Nursing

    Red Kryptonite replied to TheFowldogg's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    It doesn't, and no one with any sense thinks it does. Sad to say there are many "religious" people who want to put God in their little box and make Him in their image. True faith can never be...

  2. FLAME ON!

    Red Kryptonite replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

    Me too, and then I get nasty grams from users and irritated notes from

  3. Non-FIT Nurses and FIT Nurses

    Red Kryptonite replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

  4. Spring Break

    Red Kryptonite replied to xoemmylouox's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Spring Break is next week for me. I put in for PTO so I can spend time with my kids who feel like they never see me since I started school. We happen to have the same week off. Part of the week...

  5. 9 Months a New Grad, Still No Job...

    Red Kryptonite replied to itsmejessie's topic in General Nursing

    What about more rural areas of California? Like small northern counties? Might be worth it for a year or two to gain

  6. Frontier vs Georgetown CNM

    Red Kryptonite replied to angezsmiling's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Seems like a failure of due diligence prior to enrolling. I'm only an LPN student, yet I know that Frontier is largely self-directed and that it leans toward home birth/birth center in philosophy....

  7. Maricopa Waiting List / Placement / Timestamps 2010+

    Red Kryptonite replied to Maciso's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Maybe people are finally figuring out nursing isn't quite the panacea some made it out to

  8. Pt threw a bedpan...

    Red Kryptonite replied to NanikRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Go argue with BF Skinner about it then. While he may have agreed that appetitive reinforcements were more effective than aversive ones (there, used correct terminology), he never said aversive ones...

  9. Pt threw a bedpan...

    Red Kryptonite replied to NanikRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I have no idea why another poster's name is showing up on a quote I took from a

  10. Pt threw a bedpan...

    Red Kryptonite replied to NanikRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Which is exactly why my dog training method works. And now it's really time for me to go sleep off my night

  11. Question about some things a midwife can and cannot do?

    Red Kryptonite replied to BrooklynHD's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    Why would a midwife want to get into all the machines that go ping? Isn't the point of being a midwife to NOT be an

  12. pregnant nursing student

    Red Kryptonite replied to LNOUVRESE's topic in General Students

    Don't worry about going back to work the day after you give birth. You won't be capable of doing that, so..... Even a healthy uncomplicated lady partsl birth is utterly exhausting, and you'll be...

  13. Pt threw a bedpan...

    Red Kryptonite replied to NanikRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I knew this equivocation was coming. People > animals. Animal intellectual capacity I refuse to engage in this ridiculous conversation any

  14. Pt threw a bedpan...

    Red Kryptonite replied to NanikRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Jeez, as I said, it takes once or twice. It's not animal abuse. And all sentient creatures learn from both positive and negative

  15. Didn't pass again

    Red Kryptonite replied to FutureRNGreen's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    You mean you don't "know" where you went wrong. I'm sure that seems nitpicky, but that kind of basic mistake might indicate why you have some weakness on this test. I had to take HESI A2 for...

  16. Pt threw a bedpan...

    Red Kryptonite replied to NanikRN's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I'm completely serious about the dog. We've always trained our cats and dogs not to go in the house that way. It works and it doesn't take more than a couple

  17. LPN for 15years with no complaints\ reporting on my license.

    Red Kryptonite replied to sboston20's topic in Nurses Recovery

    You can be ticked all you like. The way the post I quoted was worded sounded like advice to go and convince a doc to give this person a fake diagnosis of depression so that they could access social...

  18. Spinoff From "Don't Be That Nurse"

    Red Kryptonite replied to mirandaaa's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Ha ha, yeah, I think you just got your ass handed to you and didn't like the sensation. How long have you been a CNA? How many places have you worked? Because my first CNA job on a hospital...

  19. Anonymous claim to BON...Psych Eval?

    Red Kryptonite replied to TheMagicCookie's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    What sucks about these d' bags is that they're so skilled in finding exactly the right places to hit in order to hurt

  20. Non-FIT Nurses and FIT Nurses

    Red Kryptonite replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

    How did I forget pasta in my paean? My life does not happen without pasta. I too lost a good amount of weight a couple years ago, and friend asked if I was doing low carb or something like that....

  21. Non-FIT Nurses and FIT Nurses

    Red Kryptonite replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

    Okay...wait....how did I not know this existed? I love good fried chicken. I can eat fried chicken until I make myself sick. I marinate it in buttermilk and then dredge it in seasoned flour and fry...

    Sorry, just re-read and saw it was a friend's divorce she was celebrating. Still....not

  23. LPN for 15years with no complaints\ reporting on my license.

    Red Kryptonite replied to sboston20's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Are you freaking kidding me with this? That's what's called "gaming the system" and it really pisses off those of us who end up paying for it! I think since she said she was celebrating her divorce,...

    Red Kryptonite replied to TheMagicCookie's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    How frightening. I am so

    Red Kryptonite replied to Elan84's topic in General Nursing

    Are you sure? On iPhone you just tap the post and options pop up, including quote. On Android, you have to long-press, and then the options will come up. ETA: actually it looks like they changed...
