I LOVE free food. I don’t consider it to be a slight like some people do. I work on a COVID unit and understand it is what it is. I work on my stomach. LOL I wonder what is acceptable for people who mock it. I get money and staffing being common and I don’t disagree but at the same time that requires money and resources. ?

I don’t agree with it but I’m sure as a student I’ve done it. I do not talk about my job or profession on social media. I don’t want people knowing my business and I don’t want to make my profession look bad by anything I may say (or possibly misunderstandings). I’d be the same way if I was a Cop or a Fire fighter or a teacher. In the same vein (possibly a pun ? )Since I’m on the subject of people on the net telling people what they do, I definitely hate the “I’m Essential” meme. Someone who works where I do has a bummer sticker of that #I’mEssential to me it’s rude a lot of people don’t have work or an income and would likely at this point trade. There are hungry people we don’t have #I’mfull bumper stickers. Im old and like to complain Don’t gloat!! LOL

This I don’t know what your work is like but some places might try that old “hey your dressed to work want to make some money since your here?” I just dress like I normally do when I’m off I do not make changes in my attire just because I’m swinging by work but of course my clothes are “work safe” anyway regardless of my days goals. If your the type that has to wear clothing with swearing or something offensive (sad there are adults who don’t understand this) then reconsider your clothes. I love flip flops sad the time of year for them is coming to a close soon

If you have respiratory health problems then you have a much higher chance of dying if you get this virus. I was reading the other day on Nbcnews about a nurse who had a history of asthma who recently died in NYC. Long story short being concerned about your health is not cowardly it is smart. Like some of the others have mentioned maybe you should think about your future in ICU. This virus is not going anywhere soon.

Well she was kind of honest. Cardiologists do deal with pipes. ?

Well I NOT a doctor so I couldn’t say. I’m not an OB again can’t say. Those patients have EVERY RIGHT not to have me in there. Or do you not believe patient should be able to say what goes on with their care? I was talking about me. I am like a lot of people I am not someone who likes to look at women’s parts all day. Im not interested in that. It makes me uncomfortable due to the same age and I would t want a woman the same age looking at my bits. It is part of schooling but I dont have to like it. No it is not a double standard for that would be me ***ing about women in male medical Situations then getting mad because I was cut out of a woman’s care for the same reason. A school being cagey and a patient dictating what they do and don’t want are not the same. Those in OB chose that I didn’t. If that was something I was ok with maybe I’d do it then. you got any thing else to say?

I’m a male and recently finished my program. I didn’t have to do anything extra for my OB rotations. In fact, that wasn’t never mentioned. the only issue I did have wasn’t school related but was that most of the women that were pts did pass on me being a male student. I was fine by this due to me being in the same age group as the pt women (30s). For me it would have been strange and awkward as hell. i did have one woman who was totally cool with me being in the room she was young and had like 7 or 8 kids all ready so I am sure I was just a different face different day. Also bonus: I got to witness more C sections than my classmates which I love due to it being a surgery type of thing. Your situation sounds questionable honestly

As a Millennial I feel that most people in my age and younger don’t stay at a job forever because there is no reason too. Largely the idea of a person starting at a company young and then staying there until retirement is very outdated. that is rare most places as most will walk all over their employees and people know it. as far as the “ok boomer” meme give that politician about 30 years and she’ll be the one the receiving end Being mocked . Age happens and it only gets fast as you get older. We all age in one direction ?

My point was most places seem prisoners as less than human. Protesting something is less “bad” by most standards. To treat that heavy handed you know prisoners are getting a bad deal. also this is the same country that thinks a “social credit” is a good thing. Don’t clean up after your dog? The world will shame you and keep you from some service or good for a while. It’s a bad idea

I’m glad they value prisoners lives with ethics and integrity. Free speech and right to protest not so much. It find it hard to believe that if a government would work that hard to stop a protest by shooting tear gas at people they value the lives of people who are deemed unfit for being in society. this crackdown on these people had been going on for quite a while now. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/hong-kong-protests-threaten-embarrass-china-s-communist-party-anniversary-n1060281

Do you mean like in terms of if I’m at the park and encounter someone having a stroke/seizure/MI/serious Injury with lots of blood loss? Yes in general I think so. I’d like to know more about that first responder type of stuff. I’m not done with school yet (almost) but I doubt in a lot of cases I’d be useful outside of the job. (I say that real loosely due to not being professionally active yet) if you mean like specialty specific like kid stuff but you are a Geriatric Oncology nurse? No maybe not. I understand that type of stuff you learn as you go. Also, who cares what your family thinks? You should not care about what other people think. What you think about you is what matters. Unless they have real experience with or in nursing what do they know? I know it is easier said and done though.

Rn to LPN? That is weird I am assuming you mean the other way around

Nah on smells and stuff I’d think the worst like you said would be children. I am a new parent (well now a 10 month old) and it put me at a different mind set with children. I don’t know if I could do it. Maybe maybe not lol

Neat! Many moons ago I wanted to be a forensic pathologist but didn’t want to go to med school blah blah blah. I read it is also the medical specialty with the oldest age of retirement so there is not many jobs like it. Defiantly would interesting. Every time I would look to see if something like this existed I’d always get SANE nursing (I guess that what Google thought I meant) I’m a guy so I doubt being a SANE nurse would be very useful due to comfort of women an all. (I get that) Autopsies that would something different especially to those who seek no real patient interaction lol

I have three sets of scrubs so that gets me through the week (3 12hr shifts) but I usually wash my clothes as soon as I get home
