Based on her second response, I don't think that's the case. I think he resentment from that time BEFORE he went to nursing school is souring the situation further, but I do think she's happy for him. However, I also think that his success HAS remind...

Now that the OP has clarified and filled in some holes... I now believe it's not so much of a competition, but more of a bit of jealousy. I'm sure she's happy for her husband, but I think she wishes she had the same or a similar opportunity. Especial...

I walk through the door at 8:30PM, so if they relied on me to cook, we wouldn't be eating until 9:30pm. So my boyfriend just cooks on the days I work. I cook on my days off. It's an even trade. We both like to cook, so it gives us both an opportunity...

I also think it's a loss of identity issue as well. Not only were promises were made and failed to fulfill, but being a nurse was HER identity. An identity she herself worked very hard for. According to her, he never showed interest until a few years...

Don't get discouraged and more importantly don't job hop or leave if you truly do like what you are currently doing. Maybe you just need some extra training. Talk to your superiors and let them know that, while you enjoy working in your unit and feel...

But you will make friends once you start doing different activities. It's important that you create supportive and understanding relationships. Last thing you need is friends who don't quite understand your commitments for your degree or don't suppor...

I agree with you. However, it can be pretty demoralizing for someone to dream of becoming something all of their life. Work hard to achieve that dream and then backed into a job they don't enjoy by a spouse who woke up one day and decided they wanted...

Also talk to your friends and explain to them that sometimes you'll have to say no or cancel. Nursing school is a busy time and while it can be done to experience the college experience it's nice to have friends who are supportive and understand that...

Oh sweetheart... I get the feeling that you're the "suffer in silence" type. You probably bend over backwards for the people you love and your feelings and desires probably take a backseat. Which isn't a bad thing, but it isn't a good thing either. I...

After. I work 12 hour shifts and we only have one bathroom at our house... Kids are usually in bed or on their way to bed by the time I get home, so I can shower in peace without someone knocking on the door asking if they can go pee or how long I'm ...

My boyfriend says this when he tells people what I do for a living. Personally I just say I'm a patient care technician and explain what it is if people ask. I think it's easier for him to say "She works in the medical field..." then explain what it ...

Haha this thread reminded me to get my flu shot. Asked my NP to administer it about an hour ago. lol

I don't care if someone speaks another language in a professional setting. I do care about your volume. Private conversations are fine as long as they do not disturb or effect another coworker's performance or their ability to complete their duties. ...

Oh she's aware. But she's convinced that there's a huge conspiracy to discredit him and swears up and down that he's right. She won't listen to reason. She's one of those crunchy moms who believe in a more holistic approach. Which doesn't bother me, ...

Our clinic is donating a meal to Feeding America for every flu shot we give. I know someone who believes vaccine caused her son to develop autism. Never mind the emerging research that suggests that autism is genetic and that they are born with it. S...

I haven't either. I work in a walk in clinic, so its recommended and free, but not required. We are only required to get an annual PPD.

Oh my goodness the melodrama in this thread both entertains and induces an eye roll so severe, they might just get stuck. Yes.... Those Cooperate Overlords TOTALLY want ALL of their employees laid up with GBS so they can close their hospitals, becaus...

I've heard a lot of talk about LPNs being phased out. The FNP I work with even advised me to go straight for my ADN for this reason. I wouldn't be surprised if ADNs are phased out and BSNs are the standard for entry level nursing thanks to the quest ...

We just found out that CAPNI is lobbying to get the IHSAA to change its outdated bylaws regarding preparticipation sports physicals. And just about every parent I've talked to is annoyed beyond belief about the situation. WE can still do private scho...

No judgement here. More confusion. There chances of you testing positive after that long is extremely minimal. You're more likely to have a false positive due to a medication you used. That or it was a bad test, but while its possible, I doubt it. Th...

I've forgotten to pee a few times. It's completely possible when you have 5 patients walk in at the same time and you spend an hour and a half registering and rooming all of them. But I definitely don't complain about it. I just go when I can or I ju...

I remember when I did reshab care a few years ago and we had similar issues. Thankfully I had wonderful managers who reminded the guardians and family frequently that the staff didn't work for them, but the company and any and concerns should go thro...

I wouldn't worry about that sort of thing. Success and passion can be found in the most unlikely places. I never even considered nursing until I worked as a DSP for a residential rehabilitation company working with individuals with intellectual disab...

Amen! However... I didn't have sex until I was 21. I was afraid it was gonna hurt. LOL That's what I'm telling my 13 year old. That it hurts and that she should wait until she's fully grown. Meaning over 18 and out of my house. Lol

It's not the fear of unvaccinated children infecting vaccinated children. It's the fear of unvaccinated children getting infected PERIOD when it can be prevented and spreading it to OTHER unvaccinated children. It's needless. Cruel. Unnecessary.
