    8/22 What I learned this week....

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    And the "Is there something in the air?" thread is closed. Seriously? I think I'm going to take a break from posting for awhile. It's getting weird in

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, and then called me rude when I gave her an answer she didn't want to hear; pass an RN program, sit AND pass Boards. This culture in our society of letting every kid who simply shows up for...

    Failed a class - should I appeal??

    Jensmom7 replied to ineedachange1's topic in Excelsior College

    You failed a class, pure and simple. I know you don't want to hear this, but you're most likely not going to be able to negotiate your way out of it. The instructor isn't returning your emails and...

    8/22 What I learned this week....

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    Gosh, I see you guys talking about school, and your homework assignments, and I start to think, maybe I should give school a go. I'm only 58. I should be able to get my DNP by the time I'm eligible...

    No visiting hours?

    Jensmom7 replied to NursesRmofun's topic in General Nursing

    This thread almost makes me wish for the good old days when our unit secretary would announce overhead, "Visiting hours are over in ten minutes. Please say goodbye to your loved ones, gather up your...

    What do you think? Unprofessional?

    Jensmom7 replied to CrazierThanYou's topic in General Nursing

    Well, at least you have validation for why you're leaving. Some places just make you shake your head, don't

    At least I got to invoke the name of Bunnicula before s/he did!!

    What do you think? Unprofessional?

    Jensmom7 replied to CrazierThanYou's topic in General Nursing

    You answered your own question. Yes, yes it is. While many places will announce a resignation (usually at a staff meeting, followed by "Does anyone know someone who might want to work here?"), this...

    8/22 What I learned this week....

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    I learned that one self righteous, strident poster has the ability to get one entertaining thread shut down and another one scrutinized by the mods all in a matter of hours. Amazing the power some...

    Jensmom7 replied to AZStudent01's topic in General Students

    While I agree that most civilians might have passing thoughts about sexual responses from Nurses and patients, this has gone on for so long I'm starting to read some of the posts in my best "Bevis and...

    I'm a sexless nurse

    Jensmom7 replied to nursingaround1's topic in General Nursing

    Kill it with fire?? ♨️♨️♨️ That's the closest I have to a fire emoji. There's a bikini emoji, an electrical plug emoji, even a freakin' Tylenol gel cap emoji. But nary...

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    My reaction to the angry, angry people? "**** 'em if they can't take a joke!" (Sorry, just watched Mama Mia lol). Also, that wasn't me cussin'; it's a legitimate movie

    Jensmom7 replied to AZStudent01's topic in General Students

    Ok, it's like this: The lady partss, testicles and memberes (penii??) that we run into as Nurses are NOT sexy. Period. I'm beginning to think that your "interest" in this is as creepy and unhealthy...

    8/22 What I learned this week....

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    I think I would, too. I am definitely NOT a sappy unicorn, but I think about what I say here and if a post makes it to the "send" button, then I mean it. If I inadvertently violate the TOS, but still...

    8/22 What I learned this week....

    Jensmom7 replied to ixchel's topic in General Nursing

    When you see the "Responses have been edited and/or removed" message from the Admin team on a thread you've responded to, do you scroll from the beginning of said thread and see if any of YOUR...

    Walking from school at night with deer and no street lamps?

    Jensmom7 replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in General Students

    Yep, once again I wrote and deleted three responses because I don't feel like getting my hand slapped. Problem is, OP WAS given some very good advise, and there are only so many times something can...

    Difficult Orientee

    Jensmom7 replied to ejnjj143's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    True-there have been many new grads, both young and *er* well-seasoned, that I have wanted to hold their heads, look deeply into their eyes and ask: "Is there anybody in
