  1. Working over 40 hours... still no overtime pay? Legal?

    Nursemiriben replied to xtina15's topic in General Nursing

    It sounds like they've found some sort of loophole but man is that snake-y!!! Anything over 40 hours at my work is work. Even if it's watching a DVD for continuing education for 4 hours. Ridiculous!...

  2. Job abandonment-CNA

    Nursemiriben replied to Vzuniga627's topic in General Nursing

    I'd be more worried about your inability to handle pressure. You'll be disrespected a million more times in your career by coworkers, bosses, patients, and their families. As a nurse you're in charge,...

  3. Was given a raise not to quit - now I have a target on my back

    Nursemiriben posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am a relatively new grad with 4 months working at an ltc. They have only been giving me 16 hour weeks even though I was offered a full time position; so I took a second job. They offered me a...

  4. Was given a raise not to quit - now I have a target on my back

    Nursemiriben replied to Nursemiriben's topic in General Nursing

    I extorted nothing. I actually had a better offer at my day job and they offered to give me that pay but less hours to stay. How is that extortion? Extortion is I have you on tape in bed with a...

  5. Was given a raise not to quit - now I have a target on my back

    Nursemiriben replied to Nursemiriben's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think the pay structure is fantastic either. Frankly I have no idea why any rn's work there. They are not our supervisors and we technically don't "have" to have them there because it's non...

  7. Was given a raise not to quit - now I have a target on my back

    Nursemiriben replied to Nursemiriben's topic in General Nursing

    Yeah corporate was in town and so many people were out we had one girl literally work 20 hours in a row before I agreed to come back. I imagined they'd have paid me 100 an hour to come back at the...

  8. Abuse?.?!? Help!

    Nursemiriben replied to mrs.hood's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    My caregivers say foolish immature stuff like this all the time. I'm in a lock down as well. It's hard to find employees at that level with a good professional attitude. Now if someone actually hit...

  10. Worried That Doctor's Orders Will Hasten A Patient's Death

    Nursemiriben replied to PrincessNur's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    No offense but this is clearly a comment made in ignorance from someone who clearly has zero medical knowledge. Post on all nurses when you're taking classes, in clincals, have a

  11. Client vs Patient

    Nursemiriben replied to srercg's topic in General Nursing

    Or in skilled or rehab care....residents.

  12. Should I quit if the job doesn't fit??

    Nursemiriben replied to RoadRN's topic in Advanced Practice

    You worked hard to be in the position to be a little demanding. If you don't love it I say leave it! Congrats on the move up the

    Nursemiriben replied to ERgirlynurse's topic in General Nursing

  14. Nurse's Week Gifts from Employers

    Nursemiriben replied to twss2323's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    We got a goody bag with a gift card for dinner and cute nurse stuff like mugs, socks, a hoodie, a card that everyone signed and some snacks to keep in our locker! I really appreciated it! And I work...

  16. Nurses are truly underpaid

    Nursemiriben replied to holly2422's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Lpn's are 12-14 months and MOST rn's are 4 years? My LPN was 18 months and the overwhelming majority of RN'S are 24 months, not 4 years. So saying we're undereducared and overpaid compared to RN'S is...

  17. Nurses are truly underpaid

    Nursemiriben replied to holly2422's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    The fact that you worked multiple jobs in 3 months and seriously never came back to a job because you can't handle "rudeness" sounds like a YOU problem more than a NURSE problem. I've dealt with TONS...

  18. The Nightingale Pledge - Still relevant today?

    Nursemiriben replied to Julius Seizure's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I don't have an issue with the content because I believe it's more about the ceremony and tradition than anything else. Definitely not a handmaiden to doctors. ..I work overnights snd haven't seen or...

  24. Nursing: Finding Ways to Bloom Where You Are Planted

    Nursemiriben replied to jeastridge's topic in General Nursing

    I've noticed lpn's are always in the middle of their rn, rn's trying to get their bsn, then masters, maybe practice, maybe teach. It's a versatile field but I really enjoyed the thought of what we...
