  1. Nurses that don't ask for help then cry when they don't get it...

    AlphaM replied to lberryj's topic in General Nursing

    What ever happened to being proactive and lending a helping hand? Personally if I see that someone needs help, I will help whether they ask me or

  2. Doctors Don't Always Listen: Bridging the Communication Gap

    AlphaM replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Sadly true

  5. Engagement/Wedding Ring Question

    AlphaM replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in General Nursing

    A lot of nurses in my hospital wear their wedding rings on a necklace for display and to keep the horny doctors

  6. I Hate People (my rant)

    AlphaM replied to AlyaMF's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I know you're not talking to me but I do disagree, only because not everyone believes in a god in the

  7. Doctors Don't Always Listen: Bridging the Communication Gap

    AlphaM replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Of course, I agree, my point is that I can just as easily say I was almost killed by a nurse, doctor, dog, etc. I'm glad you're ok though

  8. Doctors Don't Always Listen: Bridging the Communication Gap

    AlphaM replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    I almost got killed by two dogs too, but that doesn't mean all dogs are

  9. Doctors Don't Always Listen: Bridging the Communication Gap

    AlphaM replied to Julie Reyes's topic in General Nursing

    Not another "I hate Doctors thread" sigh.... For every bad doctor example there are equal or more bad nurse examples. When are we going to accept that we are all members of a healthcare team with...

  10. Am I the only one that's done this?

    AlphaM replied to Trama_junky's topic in General Nursing

    I didn't know IV skills were within the EMT scope of practice, did you mean Paramedic?

  11. Nurses Fight Back! Why Some Hospitals are Despicable

    AlphaM replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    I think we should be supportive of all oppressed hospital staff not just nurses. Oh and yes, Doctors get a pass because they generate profits for the hospital, in this darn age that type of favoritism...

  12. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I'm actually surprised and thankful that despite the differences in opinions and the nature of this topic this thread hasn't devolved into chaos and shut down LOL

  13. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I can start another thread as I don't want to derail this one, I'm also not against Christianity but I have to point out this for you as you might not be aware of some things on the bible or us...

  14. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Yes I used inflammatory words and for that I apologize. Not agreeing is one thing and we all have the right to agree or disagree. My point on discrimination was meant for the example I used on gay...

  15. RN Starbucks side job?

    AlphaM replied to borninaugust30's topic in General Nursing

  16. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Ok sorry if I made assumptions, it was hard to decipher your post. My whole point is that we should all be tolerant, believers and non believers

  17. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I rather not get into a religious debate here. I will answer your question by pointing out that up until fairly recently in U.S. history an interracial marriage was illegal, the basis for this was the...

  18. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    This is all good advice! Respect is key! In the U.S. we are facing huge issues related to religious rights. Legalization of same sex marriage has sparked heated debate on the part of some Christians...

  19. RN Starbucks side job?

    AlphaM replied to borninaugust30's topic in General Nursing

    What is this Backpages you all speak

  20. RN Starbucks side job?

    AlphaM replied to borninaugust30's topic in General Nursing

    I've met a few nurses that strip for fast cash (honest truth), not that I frequent those places but I work with some that will talk about it. It's all hush hush as you can imagine what would happen if...

  21. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I couldn't agree more

  22. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    My recommendation is to be open and honest with your peers about your feelings and core principles in a respectful manner. Just be ready to be looked at differently by some. Unfortunately some...

  23. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Yes, I took his comment at face value

  24. It's not my job to pray with you.

    AlphaM replied to kickatthedark's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    People let's be careful and not let the emotional aspect of this topic derail the thread. It's not my place to question the OP's motive or "tone". OP, I do not believe in gods, gnomes or fairies but...

  25. Why Do We Say "Nursing School"?

    AlphaM replied to singwithme123's topic in General Nursing

    Wow, reading the OP's post makes me wonder why some people just can't wait to have something to feel offended
