  1. Retaking courses

    UT of Tyler, sometime within the last semester, posted their criteria/GPA point figuring system for how they accept admissions to their BSN program. (This is the program I want to attend but I thought what they do is very interesting and wondered if ...
  2. How Many Credit Hours are you taking???

    The BSN program I'm applying for has Pharmacology and Pathophysiology as seperate 3 credit courses. As for Med Surg, and beyond that, I can't tell, 'cause they lump everything all together into 8 credit and 6 credit courses and label it things like "...
  3. You're going to Community College?

    ?! Wow!!! This post really surprised me!! I wonder where you are located, it may be a regional thing? I learn somethin' new everyday I spose. I dunno how you deal with it, never had anyone even make a comment over it. Anytime I've ever mentioned ...
  4. Desktop or Laptop?

    oooo be sure you get a decent monitor!! After getting my laptop, which has an LCD screen on it, I can hardly use the big computers now, the screens look terribly fuzzy!!! (They are old, cheap monitors.) But this is imperative when you are doing alo...

  8. Is your house a mess?

    My house seems impossible. Both my husband and mother-in-law are "collectors" and I have alot of books. I think MIL is the biggest offender though, her stuff is freakin everywhere, and she doesn't pick up after herself, not only that, she tends to ...

  12. Un-necessary classes

    I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm excited about mostly every class I take, because it fills in gaps in my knowledge about the world. (BSN student here... because by the time I'd finish the pre-reqs for the ADN program locally there's en...
  13. Whose resposibility is it to ask a patient..

    ohhhh Please make sure he knows to consult a lawyer/check into the legal aspects of all that first. He could be opening an awful can of worms. Cats
  14. Whose resposibility is it to ask a patient..

    I zoomed through this thread and didn't read all the nooks and crannies, but one thing I can add is that I used to work in admitting in the hospital. One of the things we read out loud to the patient, (regardless of ins.) that they signed, was "You ...
  15. Should I call HR???

    They'll call as soon as they have an answer probly. I doubt they'd know one way or the other if they haven't called you yet. Patience!!! ~grins~ In some situations I'd think you could call to express how interested you are in the job, but since it...
  16. I voted no. The only exception I can think of would be in terms of educating the rest of the staff not to commit a certain error that the person in question got fired over, if it was over a particular mistake that can be pinpointed. That can be do...
  17. Terminated for typing a petition

    Sounds like a sinking ship. Best wishes in troubled times, Cats
  18. Terminated for typing a petition

    What you are saying above wouldn't be considered your opinion merely, because you didn't restrict yourself to saying only that the woman was a "bad person" (opinion) you went on to give examples of fact that can be proved or disproved. There's a rea...
  19. Terminated for typing a petition

    thanks siri for that clarification. cats
  20. Outta Line........

    For future situations, can you use something along the lines of explaining how much trouble you would be in if you didn't change that sheet (among other tactics)? (I'm asking.. for my own future reference too!) Using a little psychology on them I mea...
  21. What do you do about child care?

    LOL, you'll figure something out, it'll work out somehow. I stayed home with my son for the past 5 years and waited til everything was in place to attend school, so I just took the easy way out. I'm proud of you that you're trying to get school ro...
  22. Terminated for typing a petition

    Hi :) It's possible I could be in error, however it's my understanding this above only applies to public figures. (Govt officials, pop stars, lol, etc.) Otherwise it only has to be proved that it harmed someone's reputation and that it was not true....
  23. What do you do about child care?

    My husband earns too much for us to qualify for anything, financial aid, assistance, anything of that nature. (I pay out of pocket for all school expenses.) So the daycare prices (for a 4 year old) I quoted above are just generic for anyone in Texa...
  24. What do you do about child care?

    C'mon down to Texas! :rotfl: We'll getcha right fixed on up! lol Cats
  25. Terminated for typing a petition

    I'm not a law clerk, but from what I researched on copyright and slander last night (out of curiosity) I believe the OP would be considered the author (and there for liable) for the "published work," regardless that it was the sentiment of someone el...
