    What statement is that?. We are good now in the covid department. The economy is improving and covid has fallen dramatically. Who can blame the governor for highlighting the best? Yes,...

    I know several people on academia and they take their freedom of speech both on their classroom, publishing and otherwise seriously. Florida's covid situation is interesting. We do have the...

    TB skin assessments

    Tweety replied to CoffeeKeepsMeSane's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't do it and ask them to return to whomever administered the test. We don't do TB tests anymore and haven't for years, but when we did nurses were allowed to assess coworkers and sign...

    Nurses: The Only Way Through This Pandemic is Radical Self-Care

    Tweety replied to mlee71113's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I have a friend that is on social security disability for PTSD caused by nursing. He's been was a nurse for 40 years. It is a thing. I wonder if the newer Gen Z is going to have this problem....

    https://www.msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidout-blog/joe-manchins-complaints-entitlement-are-completely-hypocritical-rcna3995 I don't think Manchin alone benefits from "entitlements". A good...

    Obvi... and we know you feel he has a right to broadcast his opinions, and I think we all do, but no opinion yourself about him as a broadcaster? In other Joe Biden news, highlighting his...

    But the above link can be flawed. If you look at California's unemployment rate in September 2020 it was 7.5% and Florida's was 5.6% so it might look like California fared better the last year in...

    A quick Google search from other news sources carries the same story. I certainly Googled it before I responded. DeSantis's Florida, while facing the same economic woes than the rest of the...

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

    We've had 17 consecutive months of job growth. DeSantis certainly should have some bragging rights, as he's the governor. I do think Florida has benefited from an overall good economy in the rest of...

    Fair enough and you're entitled to your interpretation. There is a lot of anger out there among health care professionals against the unvaccinated due to the stress and destruction they've...

    Tweety replied to SilverBells's topic in General Nursing

    Anyone taken a pay cut for sanity?

    Tweety replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    Yes but for job satisfaction not for stress. Over 10 years ago I took an office job in management of the admit-transfer center and hated it from day one. I missed patient contact and after six...

    You made me Google as I hadn't heard this story. I guess it's one way to get more cops on the job. We have a sign on bonus where I work and have no mandate. Wonder if they should recruit fired...

    Clearly Alec Baldwin did not like Trump, he mocked him on SNF and in real life and was anti-gun. Still, do Republicans have to sink so low in what is probably the most devastating event in his...
