Along the lines of the first thread, "Things you would love to say to your nursing instructors" I thought this would be a great thread to start. I've since graduated LVN but there was one main thing I wanted to say to some students in my class.
Will you people in the back row please stop talking! I swear that today I can still hear their motormouths running! :chuckle
When I am in the RN bridge I will come back and post some more. I'm sure some of you have something to get off your chest. Come on and unload here! :)
Would you please, stop surfing your Facebook when there are people sitting behind you?
If you aren't interested in the lecture, at least sit in the very back.
How is them surfing their facebook stopping you from listening to the lecture? If you are lisenting to the lecture, you wouldnt know what they are doing on their laptop.

Not quite so, flickering images that are unrelated to the powerpoints can be quite distracting. and annoying. and bothersome. Why do you think the more obnoxious popup ads always have moving images in them? They draw attention.
When we eat lunch, please try to face away from my plate when you talk. The flecks of your saliva flying onto my food kinda takes away my appetite. K, thanks.
Ive been in many classes where students have their laptops out and surf facebook during lecture. Its pretty common, it never distracted me from lecture. Ive seen FB a million times, unless they are flipping through pictures pretty quickly, I dont see how reading statuses would be THAT distracting. Some of these complaints I understand, like talking, and eating loud foods, and complaining or telling stories that take up class time. But some of these comments are extremely petty.
Looking at FB? Greasy hair? Do they have a jerri curl? Are they dripping activator juice on your scrubs? I mean really? If they are quiet, not being obnoxious, chill out a little bit.:hug:
I love this post. I still have a little way to go but Ive got lots to say:
-Thanks to those in my class who are supportive, friendly and just downright amazing!
-Like others here I do have responsibilities outside of school, but to keep complaining how your parents wont fund you to go to 13 European countries and you only have room for 10 is a bit much.
-Yes a lot of people have kids and yes we do complain, but how would you like it if we paraded (constantly in front of you) something you really wanted in front of you. Please be aware of who you are around and complaining about the "complainers"
-Coming to class in heels only makes you look like you lack common sense especially when it makes that click click sound on your way to the front of the auditorium....
-I'm not top of the class, but just because I got a 78% and you got a 94% doesn't mean I'm your *****. It means my kid was puking all night and I was up almost all night playing nurse... I'd like to see you get a passing score after sleep deprivation...
-If you don't like cigarettes, and complain about them constantly, why do you hangout with them during breaks?!?!?!
-For the eight gillionth time, STOP CONTAMINATING YOUR STERILE FIELD IN LAB BECAUSE "IT DOESNT REALLY MATTER." Theres a reason we practice this stuff... If you practice it wrong, you're going to give everyone MRSA at clinicals...
-I can't come over your house for a study group because I have kids. They will not sit quietly and color for 4 hours. If you want to come over my place during nap time, great. Dont tell me I'm going to fail the test because I didnt go to YOUR study group...
-You're not magically going to get a job making $80,000/year in labor and delivery or peds when you graduate...
Stop posting every #$%& grade on FB. I've hidden feeds for a reason, so I do not appreciate you posting your grade onmy wall, then following it with questioning mine. Nun ya. For the most part, they've been higher than yours. After being incredibly sick for a week, I did poorly on an exam, I don't need you to rub it in. I had a LVN instructor that would get on to people when he heard grade-sharing. I wish this BSN program adopted the same philosophy - it serves no purpose and does no one any good.

Eyes get tired too they need to move and look around, you don't have to stare at the instructor. How can never miss the screen of 30 laptops around you, especially when they stalk other people's Facebook pictures and they make it full screen, omggggg get a lifeeee. So annoying seeing girls in breaking bathing suits, you can Never avoid their laptop no matter how hard you try not to focus on them.
