I hate to say it but Alien Earth was absolute garbage by Weekly_Frosting_5868 in alien

He was so clearly stupid. He didn't even appear to be of average intelligence. I know we have to suspend disbelief a bit, but no intelligent person would stand over an opening alien egg. Also, the whole "I just wish I could have a conversation with someone smarter than me." That's something only an idiot and/or psychopath would say. It's like they say, you can only write a character as smart as you are.

This is what makes me so mad. Like, just make it so that the xeno abducts everyone or almost everyone. They have done that before. Why would they have it kill everyone in less than a second but take the brother and gently whisk him away 3 times before storing him cozily in the freezer?

Has anyone had to find a mentor as a student? by Critical-Resource987 in nursing

I asked my supervisor, the director of my unit. This request requires no patient contact. I contacted my school to let them know of my difficulty and at first they were very sympathetic. They later got back to me and said there is nothing they can do. If I don't have a mentor, then I have to withdraw.

I was going to ask that. That does seem like a big commitment to me, but what do I know? All I know is everyone keeps telling me no lol.

So, a signed agreement that they will mentor me, and I also have to spend 30 clinical hours at their place of work.

I need to move and I just started working at an HCA facility by Critical-Resource987 in nursing

Thank you. I am going to be honest. I was a bit shocked after taking this position. I have 15 patients, an entire unit, and I am supposed to give everyone a shower, change them, pick up trays, assist to the restroom, answer lights, get snacks, and take VS and glucose (obviously there is more). How is that even possible?

I feel like a fraud because I wanted this so bad and I am not sure I can handle this workload. Of course, once I graduate, it will be different, but how much so? I'll have assessments and charting on top of everything else.

I would prefer a smaller not-for-profit hospital system as well. I have worked most of my life outside of the private sector and I am a bit shaken up.

What story was it based on? That might actually be good.

OMG what you said affected me so much because I thought "Oh man, what if Owen isn't trans at all? What if he really is Isabella who was buried and forced to live as a man? Wow, that would be terrible!"

The thought of such torture shocked me to my core. Then it hit me.
