  1. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    You quoted my post rather than the one that initiated this discussion. Excuse me for believing it was me you were directing the comment towards. Pretty sure I've never even written a word about my own credentials save for the settings in my accou...
  2. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    Quite true. I find it odd that you come after me when the previous poster was the one that asked about my credentials. I was merely asking the same question in return. Yes. we can all lie about it - which is why I don't ask until someone starts ask...
  3. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    True. Some, less professional, nurses are attacking others with remarks about number of forum posts and bowing down to those with thousands of them.
  4. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    Again, just because she has been on this site a lot does not grant her any seniority. Especially since we have not seen any of her credentials. Why in the hell is this even a topic? Please let's drop the pissing match over seniority and accept we're...
  5. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    Dodging my point. I was asking why it's necessary to divulge more information about my credentials when the person asking has offered zero. But please do retreat to being an observer as I already find it odd you've jumped into a conversation which h...
  6. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    Listen, in no way is the fact she spends a lot of time on this site relevant to the question at hand. What are her credentials in response to her asking my years of working. This conversation will quickly boil down to senior nurses saying anyone wit...
  7. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    You ask about my years of experience? I'd only guess as a final act of desperation to assert your seniority in this argument. I don't see any level of education or licensure listed for you. You may want to be more upfront with your credentials befor...
  8. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    Well you don't have to explain the point that "it varies," that would seem self-evident. We're both talking about opinions based on our own experiences. I'll grant you that my experiences, in the facilities I've worked, seem to work out the way I've ...
  9. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    You're passing judgement on a huge group of nurses here and assuming many are are weak and frail and complain too much. You roll your eyes about someone having a headache and assume it's because of drinking since they're young. Interesting. I thi...
  10. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    Exactly. The poster was commenting on my anecdotal evidence at the same time as offering their own as evidence. Irony.
  11. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    I'm agreeable that the term can be put to rest. Only on the basis that it happens with any field and should not be exclusive to nursing. As I don't know of any evidence to support this claim that younger nurses elicit higher press-gainy scores (...
  12. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    This is the best part of your post. I agree. This is pretty odd. "aches and pains and call out for headaches...don't know what pain is yet" Care to explain what pain young nurses are to experience soon? Sounds like you're being pretty judgment...
  13. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    I'll grant you it's subjective, and I know it from experience. And you know this how? I'd guess the same way as me: experience. Quite true; though it does not make it any less true of a statement despite the fact it occurs in many other field...
  14. Apologies for using the term "NETY"

    I'm sorry. You're apologizing for saying nurses eat their young?? what the hell. You can find it offensive or out of date all you want, but it's true nontheless. Senior nurses regularly feel threatened or put-off by younger, more energetic nurses an...
  15. CNA looking to advance advice?

    Dialysis tech will certainly pay more, as being an EMT will certainly lead you to making less than a CNA. I will advice, though, that CNA experience is the most revered in terms of applying for a nursing position down the line. Point: if $$ is what...
