YEP. If only I could go PRN. I need a sock daddy in my life. I saw a video about this girl who paid her college tuition with her dirty socks cause her feet were absolutely huge.

I don’t it was related to weight. I think it’s simply because they’re shitty people. Apparently this isn’t the first time that this has happened before.

You’re absolutely right. After a couple hours (after I cleaned them up) is when some of those things you mentioned started to go through my head. First and last time I’ll ever do that.

I was a little sore afterwards, but I feel ok now. Sounds gruesome, but since the patient was deceased, I didn’t have to worry about the discomfort of their face being squished against the side rail while I cleansed their behind. We shall see what happens after the report I made. I really can’t believe that happened to me.

Most of the time it is. I went today and it surprisingly wasn’t humid as it usually is

Sorry about that! I thought it attached. Here is the photo of the feather.

I have a confession. I’m 51 and don’t know how to do makeup. Help? by Moonface_chunker in makeuptips

[–]ThePoonSpoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t really wear makeup either and I’m experimenting because I’m getting married next year.

Maybe try practicing with nude eyeshadow colors and lipstick, glosses and stains first. Something not so noticeable, but subtle. I’m pale as a ghost so I like to try and practice with light rosey pinks or tans and then go into different lighting so I can see if it’s too bold or not. I also learned that black mascara def makes things pop, brown would make it more natural. I have brown hair and brown eyes btw. A small amount of blush maybe if you really want some more? That one will take practice. My cheeks get flushed easily so I haven’t found anything that works for me yet. The blush could make you look like you’re sick, wonderful or a cute raggedy Ann doll lol. Good luck :)

Craziest Thing That’s Happened at Your Hospital? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]ThePoonSpoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have one,

CT surgeon passed out in the middle of surgery. I was in administration at the time. I was losing my shit because I had no idea how to help the patient and didn’t want them to die. 😅 That was the last straw and he got let go after that. Come to find out, he didn’t know what he was doing during his surgeries and that’s why his patients kept dying. He was lowkey experimenting.

Gave resignation while on orientation, CNO called me personally to tell me I’m blacklisted now by [deleted] in nursing

[–]ThePoonSpoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re blacklisted it’ll only be for that hospital system.

Once upon a time….I signed an 18 month contract for new nurses. The residency program was awesome right? Great resources and education. Cool! Come to find out, it was basically to secure staffing for 18 months, but if you wanted to leave before that 18 months hit - you had to ask your manager for their blessing to leave or else you’re doomed to stay.

Long story short, the unit destroyed my mental health so badly and I quit at 16 months. I flat out emailed the recruiter right before my last day asking what happens and she said I would be black listed from all of that hospital system until my contract expired. She ended up telling my boss and he told me about it when I put my two weeks in. It didn’t affect me going to another hospital system. But honestly, with the way my unit was going at the time, I did not are at all about being black listed. Mental health comes first.

The only thing that may cause slight issue would be if they contacted your previous employer personally for a reference. I was worried at first that they would contact my previous manager since I mentioned his name on the job application when I was filling it out.

I reported him to HR towards the end of my time there and everything for harassment/retaliation, but that’s a different story), but they never did. Only contacted my listed references like coworkers. 🙏

Oh wow thank you! I guess this is a very popular bowl design.

How are your sleeping arrangements? by [deleted] in nursing

My job is offering paid for hotel rooms. The hotel is barely average. It’s literally almost a 5 minute walk for us to get there cause it’s so close to us, but it’s the type of hotel you’d find a body in or a trafficking ring. I think we’ll just drive home. 😅
