    Nurses make me sick

    Interesting- never heard of it before. It's where I fall; now I know why I never felt aligned with the classic

    What is up with the level of entitlement?

    The odds are on my side for making a correct call, but, yes, one could also start off with "Hello, my name is Jedrnurse and I'll be your nurse today, how do you like to be

    What is up with the level of entitlement?

    It's true that someone observing may not have known that a nurse/student had been invited to call them by their first name, BUT it's also true that some nurses start off that way. I ALWAYS ask...
  5. Ah, but some people are addicted to steroids. Maybe that's what drives busybodies? I guess they can always work in

    Give up nursing career?

    I would finish the refresher and get a part-time nursing job. It's great to have a back-up if your business hits a rough patch. Yeah, the beginning (doing both) will be difficult, but if you reconcile...

    Nurses make me sick

    Are these other groups doing similar things on social media? (I honestly don't know, as I stay away from FB, Twitter, TikTok, etc. AN is as close to social media as I

    Nurses make me sick

    What's the actual "prize" or reward that this gives to trolls? Why is it a positive reinforcer? I'm really

    What is up with the level of entitlement?

    So true. Sometimes seniority means fossilized behaviors and practice (and more protection from the consequences of poor work productivity), instead of increased value to the

    Makes me want to open up a side business selling discounted dental floss to people struggling with popcorn

    What is up with the level of entitlement?

    I have had the unpleasant experience of having to visit "The Villages" multiple times (an over 55 city) and I have to agree with you. (Especially if you add 'entitled' after the 'more' in your...

    How much should I ask for?

    "Doing what I do now plus management duties" seems to me to be a red flag. A raise (if you get one) won't mean much when you get clobbered with unpaid

    What is up with the level of entitlement?

    I wonder if it's at all tied in to fewer adolescents having jobs for various social and economic reasons? I had my first job when I was 11 (paper route) and had my first "official" tax-paying job when...

    Hacks for Eczema, Bug Bites, Etc.

    Sorry about the silly limits on what you can use. I keep some Eucerin cream and use it for some of the kiddos with flare-ups. Mind you, I'd love to have an RX from their doctor to use, but I'm...

    Massachusetts Nurses- Flu Mandate

    Kind of hits our credibility when we send out all these communications with deadlines, doesn't it? Lord only knows what DPH and DESE are going to have to say about the COVID vaccines once it...
