      Why are you asking a bunch of strangers on the internet?

OK, just kidding. Wondering why people ask total strangers on the internet for advise regarding major life changes. I don't want to name names, but a lot of people come to this site and ask questions better answered by people closer to the situation...

Belize, where you can find drunk UK soldiers hitting on anything with a pulse? I think I'd rather the spiders.

Belize where you may end up having your body stuffed in a suitcase...

I'll take spiders over drunk soldiers and suitcase née coffin

How long until this gets shut down like all the other fun threads like this in the past.

These threads can be great fun. A similar thread went for about 60 pages or so before it got canned. We need some comic relief once in a while.

If I decide to moonlight as a stripper, does that make me morally bankrupt as a nurse and unable to view male patients in a non-sexual way?

You should probably stick to stripping and quit nursing. After all, shifts go much smoother when only men are working. Less drama and complaining. Women should stay where they belong, stripping and home making sandwiches.

I'm planning to sell my house, quit my job and sail around the world starting next year some time. Right now, there are sailboat parts all over the basement and the dining room table, so we've got our work cut out for us getting ready to go!

I am shocked at the number of people who said yes! I suspect those people don't have your best interest in mind. The correct answer is NO! You should sail right past Hawaii and sail to one of the thousands of much nicer, and much cheaper places in the south pacific.

But of course don't take you children with you because that will make you a bad parent. (See the story of the Rebel Heart see rescue and read some of the nasty comments made to the Kaufmans.)

OMG you guys, nurses are supposed to be compassionate, never ever judgmental, paragons of virtue who want nothing more than to help others! How dare you make fun of people trying to get advice from you?! You all are horrible people, I'm sure you're all horrible nurses too! You should all just get another job or retire!

I wish I could stop laughing at this post, but I can't. :roflmao:

Crusty the Old Bat here, to tell alla you youngins and grasshoppers jist how it's gonna be. I've been wiping butts, eating my young, wearing my old cap from my diploma program in 1873 and shaming new grads on AN since dinosaurs roamed the nursing units. I've fought management, wowed surveyors, survived 28373618 State inspections, precepted 823776278 students, saved 2938949837364883 lives, had both knees, both hips, and both shoulders replaced, have titanium feet, asbestos hands, and had a scan of the striations on my 837738 gallon bladder blown up and hung in the Museum of Modern Art.

I've seen it all. You name it, I've suctioned rats out of newborn's lungs in the NICU, I've survived swirling vortexes of C-Diff diarrhea that swallowed whole SNFs, I've straight cathed 1300 lb 90 year olds with a coffee stirrer from the break room. I remember when we wore iron corsets, had to crank the phone, charted with a quill by candle light and never had a break for more than a swig of Hibiclens for lunch.

You ungrateful brats these days have no idea what awaits you in the Grand Guignol torture chamber of poop and fluids that is nursing. It's been 68 years for me and I have one good eye left and need an ear trumpet to hear all you new grads whining incessantly, on top of the squeal of my 56K modem connecting over dialup. Let me tell you. *gestures with moderator's scepter* You are not a special snowflake! You will not get a medal just for showing up! You will not be allowed to ask questions that haven't been asked before! Learn to search the forums and use Google now, grasshoppers, before misfortune befalls you! Moo hahahaha!
