    Writing “poop” is unprofessional?

    Tweety replied to guest1143647's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, writing "poop" is unprofessional but that you would actually get written up for it

    My point was what Fauci is saying is true in my hospital as well. That's all I meant. They are right to say "there are x number of patients in the hospital that are covid positive". You seem...

    Part of the reason was that the initial variants for the first year or so didn't see an uptick in hospitalizations of children. In fact children were presumed pretty much immune. In this area I...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I think so because in another article they criticize him for not wiping out student debt, legalizing marijuana, stopping the filibuster, raising minimum wage to $15, all items on the extreme left's...

    Tweety replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I don't know. What I'm talking about is that a patient comes in with a broken ankle, they are admitted for a broken ankle. They are screened in the ER and found to have covid. So they are...

    Oh sure. Same here. Anecdotally, I think it's happening more now. But it could be my imagination just because there are more cases now than ever. We had several units open during delta with people...

    The guy at the end said "if you think he's the safe candidate against Trump, you're lying to yourself". Really? Biden with all his lies still looks like Mother Teresa compared to Trump. The video...

    Tweety replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Where I work we are seeing a rise in covid admissions because they are screened. They come in with trauma, falls, abdominal pain and coincidentally are found to have covid, so they get listed as a...

    To be fair DeSantis pushed vaccines at first when we all were excited to be vaccinated and there was a huge demand. When he began to see the pushback he began to flirt with the anti-vaccine crowd and...

    It's very easy to find a doctor to support your ideas. I appreciate though everyone's ideas but also consider what is the consensus among experts, not just one Dr. The doctor in Maryland...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    "all the problems of the current administration" is a bit of an exaggeration and it's interesting that you think it's different. But I can't tell you how to view the word. Several of the...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It won't because every negative bit of information about Biden will be countered with a "but Trump". We endured "But Obama..." "oh the liberal hypocrisy"... all through the Trump years so I...

    New York seems very stressed but testing is going on and right now doesn't seem to be an issue other than demand and I'm sure long waits. I think this is an example of what Biden means that state...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Biden did this, but he admits he wishes he'd done it two months ago. But really two months ago did we know that in a matter of weeks there would be record breaking demand and positive tests and that...

    What's the most consecutive hours and days you have ever worked?

    Tweety replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in General Nursing

    Back when I first started nursing I did a couple of double shifts 16 hours. Also I've done 3 days shifts, followed by five night shifts in a row. This was 30 years ago and I needed the money to help...

    At least they put in the part that vaccinated people should be treated differently than unvaccinated people an idea I'm sure isn't popular with their readers. I do think it's a fair criticism...

    I might agree with you if it were a time when cases were low. I haven't worn a mask in months as our percent of positivity was 2%. Now I expect like South Florida we'll rise to about 30%. But...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I know a few people like that as well. We all can come up with examples like that. But it is also relatively easy to find people of the same description that died from covid and regret. So there is...

    I think most presidents cooperated with a smooth transition of power but can agree they also would solidify their legacy and agenda to make it harder to undo should the president be of a different...

    I don't think Trump deliberately broke things to make it hard on Biden, that's a bit too conspiracy theorist for me. But it was quite clear that even prior to January 6th, he wasn't interested in...

    It was the "LOL" that caused me to react. I'm not defending that he was wrong about the virus and that he didn't fail. I'm not laying the entire blame for the failure on him however....

    When he took office the vaccine hadn't been out that long and primarily it was health care providers and the elderly getting vaccinated and demand was high. I really thought that vaccinations would...

    I remember talking to an educator friend of mine, long before covid and expressed my concern about the "dumbing down of America". How logic, science and even good old common sense seems to have gone...

    Don't be so obvious in your glee at being able to use this against Biden. But yeah, what he said was "I’m never going to raise the white flag and surrender. We’re going to beat this...
