    Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    Extra Pickles replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    I think the problem is that you're thinking of the wrong war, the wrong concentration camps, the wrong area of the world, and an entirely different set of conclusions based on something entirely...

    Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    Extra Pickles replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    I get a flu shot every year and every year I have a reaction to it. My body reacts by keeping me from getting sick with the flu, I don't have to use up my sick time being sick with flu, so I think...

    cost to discontinue agency contract

    Extra Pickles replied to uraiaratu's topic in General Nursing

    no one can give you a rough estimation as it depends on the contract you signed. You should have a copy, take a look and see what the penalty is for leaving before the end of the contract. Should...

    Male nursing students with questions!

    Extra Pickles replied to metsmike917's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Metsmike I was curious about the title of your thread so I read it, might want to bear in mind the questions you have, the route you're considering taking, all of that is equally applied to females as...

    Forced to get flu shot or wear a mask

    Extra Pickles replied to nurse0614's topic in General Nursing

    happened to me. I had a friendship with someone who years into our friendship decided on some pretty farout ideas on what seemed like an endless line of issues from vaccinations to homeschooling to...

    Is it a bad idea to go back to school for a CNA license after graduating as LVN?

    Extra Pickles replied to Virtual's topic in General Nursing

    In most states nursing assistants get certified through the health department, not licensed. I don't know if California has licenses or certificates but it doesn't really matter. If you get hired as a...

    Nursing scrubs worn by visitors in the unit

    Extra Pickles replied to Skippingtowork's topic in General Nursing

    Also a little off tangent but following up on your thought, not everyone who wears scrubs works in a hospital and not everyone who wears scrubs works in environments any dirtier than a law office or...

    Looking for some advice before making a mistake.

    Extra Pickles replied to italianlifter's topic in General Nursing

    Very good point about the name thing! what I meant was that usually when someone comes here to ask about whether they should be a nurse or a PA or something else they choose a userID that is more...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Such as? Surely you aren't insinuating that putting hot sauce in a sandwich to annoy a thief is a gateway to murder, right? I wonder what it is you are concerned about us being capable of? You...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    oh please show me a case where someone has lost a nursing license over the accusation of having a sandwich stolen by a coworker that turned out to be uneasy on the thief's digestive system. Please....

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Yes I understand the term, it simply isn't as relevant here as you seem to think it is. Kid breaks a leg on my doorstep, there's a pretty obvious broken leg on my property. Not quite the same as...

    Extra Pickles replied to italianlifter's topic in General Nursing

    first, please PLEASE please stop saying wanna. It isn't a word. Thanks. Here's what you need to know. there are several areas of nursing that will fit into your ideal model but the problem is you...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    This would go over like a lead balloon on night shift, where a screaming shrill alarm from the breakroom is likely to wake half the unit and possibly give them heart attacks. so thanks but no

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I think you missed my point. If I pack myself a sandwich that contains peanut pieces in it and someone steals it, eats it and has an allergic reaction, the thief who stole it can't expect to get...

    Anatomy and Physiology Lab Drawings

    your professor knows you are not a professional artist. what will matter is whether you have correctly identified what the professor wants you to have correctly identified. unless someone has taken...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Asystole giving his thoughts on what is and isn't a crime does not defend your position in the least. Being a nurse has nothing to do with it a thief is a thief. then you are being inappropriate. if...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I guess I missed the part where people posting about this thought it was a singular unique situation or that tainting food for thieves is novel. lol I don't think anyone here really thinks of...

    Young Nurses

    Extra Pickles replied to ashleyb868's topic in General Nursing

    If the reason they aren't giving you the respect you deserve is because you dress or groom unprofessionally then there you go. Look the part, act the part, and the rest follows. If you have a...

    How many NPs have had to prescribe or diagnose a patient?

    Extra Pickles replied to Ashtimus Prime's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    since this fellow has been asking about whether he should be an RN or an NP or a DNP or whatever since June it looks to me like he's just trying to figure out if any of these careers is something he...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Good for you. I can't get by on a cup of coffee and I shouldn't have to if I brought food to eat during my meal break. I didn't put something in food to hurt someone, I did it to make them...

    Does prayer help people pass tests, succeed at jobs?

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I'd have to say that yes you are wrong. you studied world religions but you came to this conclusion? I'm no expert but I think it'd be safe to say that people from religions outside of Christianity...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    I can't believe that after all this you still don't get it. YOU don't think it's a big deal so I really hope that everyone in the hospital who feels in need of a snack or a full meal goes to your...

    Breakroom refrigerator theft

    Extra Pickles replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Then you've never had the annoyance of having your nice fresh lunch already eaten by someone else before you had the opportunity to eat I take it? Not everyone has the opportunity to buy another meal...
