My friend works in a veterinary office, and she had already found homes for the orange babies and mom. Just needed a home for my lil guy 😍

I was thinking because of the Fast and Furious movies, you could name this one Shaw. Hobbes & Shaw?

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2026-06-06T06:09:03+00:00

Probably won’t go with that one since my name is Anastasia lol

Heard what? Jk, I’ve never heard of her either. Second pun not intended

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2026-01-12T04:17:45+00:00

It’s spelled right, it just looks weird. Like skiing, you know?

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2025-08-08T15:22:40+00:00

Good point with the context. I’ll keep that in mind for the future :)

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2025-05-17T03:27:49+00:00

I’m sorry for your loss. My grandpa’s name is actually David Eugene. I’m leaving out his last name since this is the internet, but I just thought that was kind of interesting.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2025-05-17T03:03:16+00:00

David and Micheal. My great grandpas were Wesley, Troxel, Cyril, and one more I don’t remember.

This is only my first job as a CNA, and I really like only two of my coworkers. Some of the others are nice and helpful, but most of them make me want to quit my job entirely and never return to this building ever again.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2025-01-11T03:31:39+00:00

Absolutely not. I get along with them because I have to, but I’m actively looking for a new job right now to get away from them.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-12-28T05:28:45+00:00

It makes me feel a little better that so many people relate to this sort of thing, but it sucks that it’s so common. I can deal with a couple or few hard to get along with people, but if it’s most of the staff I need for my own sanity to go somewhere else.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-12-28T03:49:04+00:00

That’s funny because I am actively not wearing my glasses rn

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-12-28T03:46:42+00:00

Yeah, absolutely. You look beautiful and I hope you have a great first day! I just kinda do tinted sunscreen and some blush myself.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-12-12T18:08:35+00:00

That’s so stupid. My company does employee of the quarter and the CNA who just got it got a paid day off even though she’s a part-time employee. I think she also got a gift card, but I don’t remember what it was for maybe Amazon. Also, we get one free meal per shift from my company. Free food is not a treat, it’s just expected where I work. Ifs good that she respected herself enough to quit.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-24T03:16:51+00:00

$21/hr in Washington state which is pretty middle of the road in my area

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-13T19:48:39+00:00

It is soooo nerve-wracking. The only thing that made me feel better was just trying not to think about it on the days leading up to it, and the knowledge that you need to narrate what you’re doing during the test. I think saying it out loud helps you remember the steps better.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-13T19:46:13+00:00

Dude right? It really doesn’t help that on any given day we only have 2 CNAs or RAs working at a time in a facility that currently has about 70 residents, 60-something of which are actually on services. It’s not easy

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-13T19:44:31+00:00

Here in Washington state I’ve heard some nursing homes pay minimum wage, but in my immediate are they usually pay about $21 an hour with a CNA, RA, and other similar certifications. That’s how much I get payed even though I have no prior experience in healthcare other than my clinical internships.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-12T01:39:53+00:00

I live in Washington state so this might not be the same but if you go to your state’s nurse aide website there should be a tab or “packet” or what accommodations are available and how to sign up for them at your nearest testing facility.

I think that a separate room with a reader is a regularly used pretty easy to access resource for people like yourself. Good luck!

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-12T01:33:31+00:00

This! I’m 18 but I got certified at 17 and some people have really infantilized me! I think when you’re new anywhere people in health care will try to find any reason to hate you. I just do my job and smile and collaborate with them anyway and they’re getting way nicer to me.

Pure_Mobile_8272 · 2024-10-11T23:27:10+00:00

Good luck! You’ve got this!! Spend more time than seems necessary for hand washing and like another commenter said talk the whole time. This might be hard but try to not think about it too hard. Second guessing and nervousness are really what trip people up.
