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! :)
To the one woman in my class with the thick Polish accent:
Whenever you have a problem with something, please stop saying "Vut am I to do?"
My answer: I'm not you. You're an adult, and if you can't deal with your problems, our school offers free counseling. And please stop telling everyone that your green card is about to expire and you can't renew it. If you keep annoying me, I'm going to make some "anonymous" phone calls to the proper authorities.
"Quit debating pointless ideas you can't back up that has NO relevance to what is being taught at the moment!!"
"Quit texting or talking around me when I am trying to listen and learn; a concept you obviously do not share!"
"So you think this is playtime? Go "play" then, figure out if this is what you really want to do, and let the ones who take this seriously attend class in peace!"
"How do you manage to stay enrolled with your tardiness and disregard and respect for teachers and faculty?"
"So, your parents are paying for your education and you have all day to sit at home and study? Good for you...Now, in the REAL world, adults work and pay for their education and somehow find time to raise kids, eat and sleep. DO NOT tell me maybe I should've studied at home when I have no free time and I ask that you please keep the noise level down for the few minutes before a damn test!" (Yes, this one I did say to the classmate and had an apology..lol)
"Sooo....you don't know if you want to be a NURSE?" Seriously? And you are here....why?? Ohhhh...you thought it would be something different for you!! Now, I understand why you are so non-committed!" >_>
i dont see how me being too broke to go out for a meal and an evenings drinking means that im not a team player.
I dont have £60 to waste on nothing, that would feed us for about 9 days.I dont drink alcohol any ways. grrrrrr, sorry that i dont have a daddy or husband who brings home plenty of money.

To our "class president" who is supposed to represent our semester...
I can't believe you had the nerve to ask our professor why we were learning the pathophysiology of lower respiratory problems. I can't believe you had the nerve to tell her that she had "previously told us" that we wouldn't have any A&P on our tests, since we had obviously already learned it, and since it wouldn't be on the test, shouldn't be reviewed in class.
I'm terribly sorry your diet is making you grumpy, but if you're going to act like that with our very hard working instructors, eat a #*&@^$ granola bar, or something before opening your mouth!
Why do you call me just to ask what I got in all my tests, assignments, etc.
Knowing what I got is not going to make your grade any better. I can tell you what I got, I don't care, but I always wonder why people care so much. Stop saying"you always do good on your tests, you are smart." I am not freaking smart, I just spend more time studying instead of going to the same club 3 days in a row. Stop crying about your grades, no one feels sorry for you, if you cared so much you would spend time studying instead of partying.
"You may ask one dumb question a week. When you exceed that limit, you will receive electrical shocks of increasing severity with each additional question. Go ahead, ask how many testicles you're supposed to have, I dare ya! Idiot................."
If you can't shut up about your social life during the most important lecture of your first semester (physical assessment), I have to wonder how in the hell you did well enough in your pre-reqs that you even got in to nursing school.
You are annoying the hell out of me. I am distracted. I am also trying to record this lecture, and instead, I'm recording your gossip.

SHUT UP!!!
Funny. Everytime I listen to my lecture I get so annoyed because there is one student who can't stop talking about stupid things (nothing to do with the lecture). Sometimes it just makes me laugh.
Hi guys, new grad but keeping up with everyone on board, my pet peeve throughout nursing school and I am sure you all have one in your lectures, you know the one who has someone in thier family, friends etc who has everyone condition the professor is talking about, and interrupts the class with endless stories, or the emt, paramedic, cna etc who thinks we are all interested in thier stories about thier clients, JUST SHUT UP, please I wanted to scream, I am trying to hear the professor.
We have three students in our class that are possibly THE MOST ANNOYING students. Ever.
We call them:
Chatty Cathy
Biker Mama
Pete Pete Repeat
Pete Pete will literally raise his hand after every statement the teacher makes and repeats what she just said. Everyone's like, ***** What don't you get?
Biker Mama is this middle-aged woman that dresses in tight jeans and brags about how she hangs out at the biker bars and rides her Harley around town. Again, no one cares. Her only wish is that she had children. Maybe if you changed your attitude, lady, and gave a flying fig about other people besides yourself, you may get a man.
Chatty Cathy, we swear, has Turner's syndrome. How she gets her morbidly obese body into her tight fitting clothes is beyond me. Her voice sounds like she's speaking through a kazoo. (Her other nickname is Kazoo lady).
All three of these Devil's spawns hang out together like nuns. Chatty Cathy asked THE SECOND WEEK OF SCHOOL what would be covered on the mid-term so she "could start studying now." The teacher said it was too premature to ask, but she had the "Dear God get a life already" look in her eyes. Biker Mama has seen EVERY DISEASE, PATHOLOGY, you name it, in clinicals even though we've only had 2 weeks of clinicals!! Everyone knows she's lying and just talking just to hear herself talk. Someone in class approached her and pretty much told her to knock it off. Thank you Jesus!

OMG We have one of these that just pains me to listen to... lol.. she starts out so enthusiastically, but by the end of her story, even the teacher has a look of "and..?" on her face... LOL but she just keeps on tellin' her stories... *facepalm*

Stop texting while in class its annoying and rude.
Don't ask me to copying my study guide that I worked hard on. Do your own work and you might actually learn something.
When you are done taking the test leave the room quietly and don't let the door slam people are still trying to take the test.
Stop asking for every test and quiz to be a take home or to be done in a group.
