    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Why value life? Because as organelles, we have to live. Only, we're uniquely capable of self-destruction. The human mind can overturn natural capabilities. Vegans stray from meat, even though we have...

  2. What is the afterlife like?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    A materialist? Isn't that someone who likes to consume materials for pleasures? Like a profligate? No one knows what happens when you die, and they sure can't prove it. The only way to know is to...

  4. What do you do when a patient threatens harm?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in General Nursing

    With how you describe what you're doing, if I were in that position, I would probably look at her while doing what you're doing and tell her, "Don't, I'm trying to do my job for you, so you can get...

  5. Nursing craziness

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in General Students

    I've uploaded a picture I saw on a facebook website. Hopefully, it loads. Also, how do you attach a picture to a personal message? I guess it's only by weblink? There's no paper-clip thing. Is this...

  6. Addressing the Predicted Nursing Shortage

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to traumaRUs's topic in General Nursing

    I'm going to have to stop reading about there. 1. I have friends who completed their ADN in 4 years or more. 2. They're doing their BSN right now. 3. They regret getting their ADN and wished they...

  7. Is it legal for your boss to dictate where you poop?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to klone's topic in General Nursing

    In Russia, apartments, and I think houses, have bathrooms where the toilet has its own room. So, a bathroom would have only a sink and shower, and then the toilet would just be in a storage-like space...

  8. Company removed all chairs

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Hnurse101's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a CNA and am well aware of 'scope of practice'. If I were you and if the CNAs and all who you work with are an AWESOME team who do their jobs, I would encourage everyone that you like or don't...

  9. Missed one

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to WineRN's topic in School

    If i were the school nurse evaluating the student, if I had to for safety, I'd send him home, but ask him "Can I see you tomorrow to follow up? As a nurse, we're always learning" in a nice tone to...

  10. Birds of a feather

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to AutumnApple's topic in General Nursing

    That is not ANYBODYS fault. AT ALL. Not yours. Not mine. Not anyone, but her problem. If you're new there, you shouldn't deal with someones personal problem. I learned the hard way. VERY hard way. So...

  11. Is a government job worth it?

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to imanfnp's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Typically, federal jobs have great benefits. The downside of working for the feds is pay raises are VERY slow. If a hospital raises your pay every 6 months to a year, feds will probably raise your pay...

  12. 7-11 day! Fill your containers! nurse humor, delete if not appropriate

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in General Nursing

    I thought this was hilariously epic! I've been wondering if these pee bottles are reusable or disposable. I want to do this and snapchat myself doing a little dance while sipping away with not a care...

  13. Mandated Nurse-Patient Ratios

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Nurse Beth's topic in General Nursing

    Seeing some of these comments with nurses quitting due to burn out or excess patient workload, doesn't it kind of hurt the other nurse who isn't quitting because they have bills to pay that you were...

  16. Your experience in nursing school

    Beldar_the_Cenobite posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What was your first thought going into nursing school? Piece of cake? Or What career am I going to do if I don't make it nursing school? Did you fear some of the obstacles you knew you'd have? How did...

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    Beldar_the_Cenobite replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I hope this comes out. The numbers on the top of my slides with the arrows and the "starts @" is my technique called Blackboxing. If you do this for all your classes that involve power points, and the...
