    Tweety replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Daily Diary's Entries

    Good morning! Glad you're feeling better Joe. Ado, eating out is so expensive, so food truck eating seems a bit more reasonable. J22, I find Americans in general cook pretty...

    Should nurses be forced to wear tracking device at work?

    Tweety replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    I never minded wearing a tracker, it was nice to have the call ball go off automatically when I walked into the room. It was also nice to be able to locate a coworker without yelling up and down the...

    Tweety replied to Tweety's topic in Coffee Lounge's Lounge

    Too funny Karen. Top Gun is getting universal praise from viewers and critics alike. Can't wait to see it. I read an article that it grossed over 600 million in the US alone. I got a free...

    Good morning! Joe, hope your aunt is okay. Washed some sheets and mowed as much of the grass as the battery allowed. Almost done but need to recharge the battery. We got some serious...

    Speaking of rats there was a rat in my dining room yesterday. I wanted to chase it out the door with my broom and is slumped over. Poor thing seemed to be sick or dying. I was able to pick it up...

    Good morning! Joe, hope you have a good day. Six dozen cookies is a lot! Enjoy. Ado, do you work 3rd shift when you work? I would find that difficult to work two shifts like that. My...

    Good evening! Home from a long busy day. Found out that two coworkers, one day shift and one night shift put in their notice. They come and they go. Work was okay. Some shift change mess...

    Stars, I find a NPR a good source for news, so at least he's getting some good information. I'm glad I left NC and Atlanta before people have gone all crazy. Although I did have to endure the Jesse...

    Good morning! Joe, hope you have a good day. Last time I was in a library was pre-covid to visit a photo exhibit of one of best friend's neighbors. It was small about ten photos. But I was...

    How Healthy Eating Can Help with Weight Loss

    Tweety replied to Rmooney's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with the above that working can be our downfall and it does take planning to eat healthy for a 12 hour shift. I have a tendency to stress eat and if there are donuts and pizza provided and...

    Why Being a Nurse Means You Have Many Options

    Tweety replied to April Rowe's topic in Nursing Career

    Nursing is good that way. I've transferred specialities several times...trauma, telemetry, neurology, admissions, ortho, post-op. The good thing is I've done it all at the same hospital and now have...

    Joe, don't remember that you had covid. At this point probably about 50% or of the people I know have had covid. I never had the mumps. In fact I was such a healthy kid I think 9 out of 12...

    Understandable to mix up and forget medications. I forget that my dog needs three drops a day of one of his glaucoma medications and two drops a day of the other. Yesterday he got only two of both....

    Nurse and Bipolar

    Tweety replied to Domosuki's topic in General Nursing

    While I can agree that sometimes our society is too quick to take a pill, bipolar disorder can be very serious. A person in mania that isn't sleeping and can't focus surely would have a hard time...

    Why are Nurses Leaving the Bedside?

    Tweety replied to RN WRITER NC's topic in General Nursing

    Why are Nurses Leaving the Bedside?

    Tweety replied to RN WRITER NC's topic in General Nursing

    We got about 3% but I didn't get one because I'm "maxed out", meanwhile inflation raged on. It does seem that workers in areas in high demand like fast food have seen their salaries and benefit...

    As an older male nurse, I still will occasionally get "I have to get off the phone the doctor is here" so when I introduce myself I usually say "I'll be your RN today...and so and so is our tech" so...
