The Mockery of Nursing

[Old.Timer]

Just a bit ago the top three threads involved:

1.I have a DWI. Can I be a nurse?

2.I am stupid. Can I be a nurse?

3.If it takes me five times to pass NCLEX, Can I be nurse.

Not much left to add. Says it all.

I would like to bring my cats.

That's what my job is missing--cats! How amazing would that be?

an afterthought...had originally started typing this on the Satanic thread, but since that's likely to close and since I don't particularly want nosiebodies searching key words...

here's a thought: since we know that the Diabetic Coma in a Glass (we'll stick with the name?) is actually triple sec and watermelon-strawberry Kool-Aid, perhaps it should be on the rocks?

FROZEN! Yum.

Actually, it could be incorporated into one heck of a jello shot.

Thread Title:

"I love being a Post Apocalyptic VooDoo Zombie worshiper nurse"

I know not everyone has the same beliefs as me. I got into nursing to help and heal people.

What do y'all think?????

Really

Well, we do stick sharp objects into people. But more importantly, if you're a zombie, do you eat your young?

[mazy]

hint - the words "experienced" and "young" are in the title. Its in this forum!

I am NOT touching that thread with a ten foot pole - I'll get myself into trouble for sure.

Oh gawd. I'm never going to get off this computer.

Hey! I've made Silver! Yay me.

Welcome to the club! I can say that cause I just went silver the other day. All because of mockery.

lmk

:crying2:"

i decided not to respond. my head would explode. then i'd be in danger of freaking out. and that would be a big deal. wouldn't want anyone to get nourvous.

wait. is this a pregnancy test?

And yet another thread that I'm keeping my fingers away from. I swear, I just don't have the patience today.....apparently it's a new thing that the NM interviewing the new grad says "I don't tolerate nurses eating their young" and "I have fired several bullies". I say new, because I can't imagine a NM EVER firing a competent nurse because she didn't like how that nurse talked to another nurse? Sounds like total, flame-broiled BS to me. Want to hire a couple of warm bodies? Tell them EXACTLY what that newbie was told. It's gold.

I once worked for a NM that told me similar stories, all about how we have to create a warmer, more loving environment in which to "nurture" our newest employees. Too bad she was right there with the flame thrower PRN!

Ugh, I love the new grad in that thread that has a history of thinking she knows more than everyone else has already made plans for when she's a manager. Of course, it has nothing to do with her know-it-all attitude that she will experience "bullying" and "lateral violence" but instead it will be all because of all the biter nurses that don't understand how much smarter she is.

I am working on a reciepe book of "How to Eat Your Young".

I think it will be a big success.

I have receipes about roasting them, frying them, making casseroles, and of course, every nurses favourite - left overs that can be brought to work the next day and eaten on the go!

(receipe doesn't look right to me, but spell check seems to like it?? But I suspect I must be using spell check incorrectly as it accepted the Canadian spelling of favourite)( yes - I have spelling issues!)

Recipe is the correct spelling.

And don't forget stir-fry! Oh, and Egg Foo Young... get it? I'm so punny!

[Pepper The Cat, BSN, RN]

Thanks! Recipe is a word I can never spell!

So, two versions, the second to be Diabetic Coma in a SHOTglass :)
