    Getting Flack For Not Getting Covid Vaccine

    Tweety replied to EDnurseAmen's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It's your choice and I think right now you just have to shrug it off. You have your reasons. You're feeling the pressure because vaccination is the key to herd immunity and getting out of this...

    The Insurrection: Trump 2nd Impeachment Trial starts 2/09/2021

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

    The lead story on Fox is about the resignation of the Chair of the Lincoln Project. Seven stories about this "bombshell" of a story. They do say in an article several stories down that Trump's...

    How do you dilute IV push phenergan?

    Tweety replied to eastsider's topic in General Nursing

    It's still used where I work but the pharmacy makes the bags for us as we need them. Very rarely is it ordered. I remember back in the day using it IV on all the posts and was fortunate to never...

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    Really a good deal of news while "written journalism" is online and through shares on social media. This is not necessarily a bad thing because when say something goes viral on Twitter or facebook it...

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    I can understand given Trump's history why adversarial news agencies would give it a lot of attention to Trump's comments and go "meh" to Biden even though both comments are relatively benign. But I...

    Just a Little Venting

    Tweety replied to Kbelle's topic in General Nursing

    We have the same rule, but if it's something that's expected we don't need to call. For example if a patient has thrombocytopenia has had platelets of 20 every day then a another 20 doesn't warrant a...

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    I can see that. Even awkward comments made in good humor that was meant to compliment is now considered sexual harassment. Again, I'm a bit baffled by him and that he really doesn't know that you...

    Anxiety Over Past Mistakes

    Tweety replied to anxiousnewgrad58's topic in General Nursing

    This. We just have to accept what we can not change and understand that we can not re-write the past, forgive ourselves and let it

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    Trump started Operation Warp Speed, but he didn't seem to go out and promote the vaccine much so I can agree with that. But still many senators from both sides of the aisle like Pence, Rubio, Graham,...

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    I think it's a general mistrust of "the government" which are the authority figures, not one person or entity in particular. Even Trump supporters feel this way. I work with an ardent Trump...

    Anxiety Over Past Mistakes

    Tweety replied to anxiousnewgrad58's topic in General Nursing

    It's hard not to let go of things in the past. I have made a couple of good mistakes when first starting out and overwhelmed with it all. I can only strive to keep them as lessons learned and try...

    Tweety replied to Davey Do's topic in General Nursing

    Allnurses was one of the first websites I visited regularly when I was getting on the internet about 20 years ago I think. My first name was "3rdshiftguy" if anyone remembers. I remember at one...

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    You don't need to convince me of any of this. However, I and apparently another couple of posters questioned your post about the 70 million people so apparently your satirical response was lost...

    The Great Hypocrisy and Fake News!

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

    It's offensive because a good deal of Republicans did not believe in the attack on the Capital. Plus surveys don't show that 70 million people didn't believe the election. You can't make a broad...

    It's satirical. https://www.Yahoo.com/huffpost/josh-hawley-chiefs-083753795.html But there are some conspiracy theories going around about the Super Bowl, and the referees in

    House and Senate Democrats introduce legeslation to increase federal min. wage to $15/hr by 2025

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

    I'm taking the "what they are worth" as he wants to pay a livable wage because he said he could get away with paying less and he chooses to pay more. But perhaps that is how is should be and...

    Four 12s in a row?!?! ??

    Tweety replied to NightNerd's topic in General Nursing

    Every blue moon our manager will accidentally combine two schedules and schedule someone 4 shifts in a row. She'll change it if they fuss before the final schedule comes out but after it's final it's...

    COVID Vaccine: False sense of security or green light?

    Tweety replied to Schweet's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I too would disagree with the poster that mitigation efforts are more deadly. I also have to say that we do have to acknowledge all the things the poster said in that marriages went sour,...

    Typical orientation time for new hire?

    Tweety replied to MyAimIsTrue's topic in General Nursing

    Depends on if it's a unit similar to one you've already worked. We typically give two weeks to experienced new hires to learn our way of doing things, since we presume they know how to take care of...

    COVID Vaccine: False sense of security or green light?

    Tweety replied to Schweet's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I live in Florida, the land of no Covid restrictions. For a while now I've gone to gyms, restaurants, yoga classes and bowling. Just differently, with a mask and social distancing, and carry out or...

    House and Senate Democrats introduce legeslation to increase federal min. wage to $15/hr by 2025

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

    My employer announced it's raising it's minimum wage from $11 to $13 starting now and then to $15 in two years. A profitable business in a tight labor market can handle it. I strongly agree that...

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

    Free country indeed but not necessarily a free discussion. This is a privately run forum with rules. You can not attack someone and say "you are beyond help" as personal attacks are not allowed....
