  1. BREAKS?????? You've gotta be kidding!

    NursesRmofun replied to Joe V's topic in Nursing Humor

    I find, a lot of times, all the nurses on the floor feel overwhelmed and would not want to "cover" another person's patients for a half hour. When you work a very busy floor, there is no such thing as...

  2. Remembering the First Black U.S. Army Nurse During Black History Month

  3. BREAKS?????? You've gotta be kidding!

    NursesRmofun replied to Joe V's topic in Nursing Humor

    At one job- let's say, I rarely took even 15 mins because I had an *** of a preceptor who was looking at her phone or doing home work all shift except maybe 30-45 mins. to critique or "evaluate". Most...

  4. Why are so many nurses against unions?

    NursesRmofun replied to Icunicenurse's topic in Collective Bargaining, Union

    I have never worked in a unionized hospital. I worked in one where there was a short time when a union was courting the nurses, and the hospital stepped up and gave us some extra pay and benies and...

  5. "I would never want you as my nurse!"

    NursesRmofun replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I got offended about responses here in the past a couple times for all the "usual" reasons, including that some posters definitely intend to incite! This IS the anonymous internet...but then I...

  12. Nurse Tries to Eat Another Nurse

    NursesRmofun replied to FLAlleycat's topic in Nursing Humor

    I like it. She probably was very late for her break and hungry.

  14. TB question

    NursesRmofun replied to tiny_dancer's topic in General Nursing

    I worked somewhere where the patient (a CNA) had the vaccine in Mexico but didn't tell me and she was grossly positive on her skin test. As I recall, the DON required her to have a chest xray and then...

  15. I want to quit nursing.

    NursesRmofun replied to Nomad_Nurse1's topic in General Nursing

  16. Feeling guilty about calling in sick.

    NursesRmofun replied to Becca, RN's topic in General Nursing

    When working nights, I am even *more careful about what I eat and vitamins, supplements. I have not had an sickness since on nights this round,

    NursesRmofun replied to elizabeast7's topic in General Nursing

    I think this system probably works

  18. Scanning in the supply room

    NursesRmofun replied to elizabeast7's topic in General Nursing

    A guess is they are not scanning because of the time element. It takes extra time they don't have to do it. At one place of employment, we use to have "tickets" or "stickies" on the item that could be...

  19. Night shift RN's :Do you eat in the morning after your shift?

    NursesRmofun replied to DesertSky's topic in Health, Stress Management

    At my latest employment, I work 12 hrs. I eat dinner early before leaving but a light dinner and breakfast when I come home. I have a light lunch at work about mid-shift. It works in that my weight...

  20. I Should Be in Jail

    NursesRmofun replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    Keep doing what you do for as long as you do it. You are the sane one in an insane world. Glad you aren't in jail. You wouldn't do the kids any good

  21. Completely unavailable Unit Manager and DON

    NursesRmofun replied to Cola89's topic in General Nursing

    It seems like this particular Unit Manager and Don would like you to be a bit more independent and use your *good nursing judgement. It seems you should have discouraged the transfer to the ER (for...

  22. after 35 years, I cannot believe it

    NursesRmofun replied to Carolyn1234's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with most of all the responses. Do what you want. Give notice or don't. If you don't need the income, it's all good.

  23. Do differentials make up for working 36 hrs vs 40 hrs per week?

    NursesRmofun replied to Philly85's topic in General Nursing

    I like working less hours overall....spending less time at work is my ideal. $6000 or $10,000 is not a big deal for me because I was essentially out of work for a long while...working fulltime is nice...
