    I Need to Vent...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to coughdrop.2.go's topic in School

    Hang in there and don't lose your lunch (break). Maybe give the radio a try, with the caveat that if you are disrupted for non emergencies, you will not be available? A little compromise can go a long...

    Why do parents think schools are daycares?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    That thought went through my head, too. I was disappointed that there was no comment section.The other thing I noticed was his bio, sometimes I wonder, do both parents really need to work? If it is...

    Why do parents think schools are daycares?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to MrNurse(x2)'s topic in School

    I see both sides, I do, and I really do understand the plight of the working poor, but we make allowances to cover contingencies, it is part of being a parent. We have 3 deep coverage, but one day all...

    switching from district to contract?

    MrNurse(x2) replied to jesserpie's topic in School

    Working agency is a dual edged sword. You are never really safe, should the position be able to be filled, it will. Benefits are normally waived, including sick time and vacation time. You are seen as...

    Just a small vent...

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Nurse_JackieVA's topic in School

    MrNurse(x2) replied to Amethya's topic in School

    My oldest, at age 4, noted the discrepancy of gifts between rich and poor, we came clean. Our circumstances showed him that God answers prayer and Santa was given too many attributes of God, so we...
