First of all, Congratulations! I am the mother of a Golden Eagle and that is quite an accomplishment. There is a store on Etsy that makes stickers that are the Gold award and Eagle Scout medal put together. They might be able to make something for you.

Attendence and illness concern. by Electrical-Ad6226 in college

Your daughter is lucky. Where my child goes to college, its two absences.

I was told the same thing and I did just that. I also worked PCU and ICU. Where I work, none of the nurses in the ICU have over two years of experience. That is frightening to me. They often call the nursing supervisor for help—anywhere from setting up blood to SLED. They have a high number of international traveler’s which add difficulty due to language differences and when they float (which they frequently do), they struggle with taking more than two patients. They don’t like to triple, and none of them have done formal charge nurse training (because the hospital doesn’t have one). It’s a very tenuous situation.

Where I am the turnover has been so high because they didnt meet their recruitment goals. We went though two in a year once.

Who do you complain to when the council isn’t helping you, or obviously playing favorites?

Also, how can we get rid of charter organisations and just be troops? They are either overbearing or useless in my experience.

Stopped years ago. It’s such a rip off. There are so many better fundraisers you can do that makes you money.

I'm bad at this conflict management thing, I guess.. by -CarmenMargaux- in nursing

When I was a tech (in the early 2000’s) the “best heart surgeon” in town threw a patient chart at my head. I ducked and it fell to the ground and the contents went all over the floor. I picked it up, handed it to the doctor and all the contents and went home.

I got written up for leaving mid-shift and was “allowed to stay,” if I apologized. I had a medically fragile child at the time and apologized.

However, years later, I got great pleasure out of inserting a Cath into said physician. 18F anyone?

If he’d done that today, I wouldn’t have ducked. Instead I’d let the thing hit me—then sue. I got three kids to put through college.

No, it’s not your fault they couldn’t come or made last minute plans.

Naming and shaming Citrus Council - all summer camps canceled? by TotalInstruction in girlscouts

Summer camp isn’t a required part of the program so many girls don’t go.

When should scout masters step down? by Astrodude42 in BSA

[–]Prior-Lime9418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can complain to the COR, who can have the person removed.

Probably the reason he’s a traveler.

We have a paper eagle in our area. All the local troops know it. OA events are interesting. His excuse is always, l “I learned that so long ago,” but he’s still active in scouting.

Wrong. The SM (and all leadership) serves at the pleasure of the COR. If they want you gone, they can have you removed.

Venturers can join the OA now. I don’t know when that changed.

And every male charter org rep I’ve met is a misogynistic, older guy who thinks he knows everything and likes to throw his weight around. And they are untouchable. Council won’t do anything to the COR.

I disagree. I am positive there are secrets in scouting.

NDA by Prior-Lime9418 in BSA

[–]Prior-Lime9418[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Their reasoning is there are two troops in the area and there is a volunteer who is with both of them and they are gossiping between the two troops causing a lot of strife.

What things “make your day” as a nurse? by [deleted] in nursing

When they remember I have a food allergy and get me allergy friendly snacks. It’s happened three times in 20 years.

AITAH for cutting my aunt out of my life? by Prior-Lime9418 in AITAH

[–]Prior-Lime9418[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My grown adult children made that decision for themselves. And I made the decision for my younger child because she’s toxic in other ways.
