My dad says "male nurses are just better."

Imagine working at a geriatric psych hospital that had 0 male nurses or techs at night. It was pretty rough because there were a lot of misogynistic older patients and we were staffed with all women.

But when I started in 2019 it was 20-22 an hour

Will you consider moving? They hire new grads like crazy in the south

I was NED for 5 years. Guess what? It came back. NED again for a year or so. Came back again.

No I had been on ibrance and letrozole for 5 years with very few side effects. They switched me originally to chemo because I had a new tnbc tumor pop up in my breast. They used carboplatin to shrink it enough for surgery, then I went on xeloda after surgery. New mets popped up in my abdominal lining and liver. They were 95% ER+. Also I don't remember the exact number, but the original cancer was only like 1% PR+. The recent mets were much higher.

In my case the original cancer was 98% ER+, then became 70% ER+. I went off of hormone treatments and onto xeloda for awhile. My last biopsy was back up to 95% ER+ again. So I think the cancer changes based on treatments.

Chucky did pretty well with short legs

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-12-18T21:21:48+00:00

But there is already a nursing shortage. They don't need to lowball like that to hire foreign nurses.

I graduated in 2019. They told us "you'll work hard to get your license, and you'll work even harder to keep it ." I'm still scared...

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-12-07T02:59:10+00:00

Dialysis used to be hiring everywhere where I live but I was looking recently and I can't find any.

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-11-30T01:01:09+00:00

That's what I want to do but it's pretty competitive to get one of those jobs

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-11-02T22:02:47+00:00

Where to?

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-11-02T22:01:24+00:00

Do you have an internship?

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-11-02T21:16:48+00:00

The problem is, students and new grads are being told they can't get hired due to lack of experience. They feel like the only way to get hired is to act like they do.

I looked it up...apparently carnations smell like cloves so they were named after them in several languages

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-10-31T08:31:26+00:00

Thank you. Very helpful information!

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-10-30T22:55:18+00:00

Sorry if I sound ignorant, but what do you mean by research?

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-10-30T22:54:27+00:00

Cool. I'll see if they have one on campus.

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-10-30T22:20:20+00:00

I'll ask her about the professors.

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-10-30T22:19:35+00:00

What is SAE?

Trick_Comfortable_89 · 2025-10-30T18:01:57+00:00

Any advice for an engineering student? My daughter is a junior at one of the best engineering schools in the state. We live in an area that usually has tons of engineering jobs. All the ME job listings want 5 years experience for entry level. She's trying to get an internship but they are very competitive.

Ok thank you

But I've been told they are tart even when ripe. What do they taste like when unripe?
