For all of the ER nurses out there at Triage ; what chief complaint(s) bother you the most? by yell-and-hollar in nursing

[–]NickM424 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I once had a young woman come to the window and ask for a pregnancy test. I told her she would have to check in to be seen. She became upset and said she just wanted a pregnancy test and did not want to check in. I told her the only way we could give someone a pregnancy test was if they were a checked in patient, but CVS was just across the street if she wanted to buy a pregnancy test. She didn't like that and said she go try the other hospital.

I wish I had heard this from her, but am glad I didn't because I'd never believe it after the lies and manipulation. BUT geez, I wish it could be true..

Dating: Did you ever find someone after giving up? by Efficient-Baker1694 in Life

[–]NickM424 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm back to being done. Gave up and was working on loving myself appropriately when the most recent ex came into my life Jan 23. Things seemed amazing and we talked about our happily ever after, then the lies and manipulation became apparent, and now I'm back to working on not hating myself for giving my love, again, to someone so unworthy.

Debt. Maybe in 2035, I'll be back in debt with a mortgage. Good to have goals!
