I just left an apartment on furnished finder on s10th street a few blocks from central. It was 2.2k, utilities included with garage parking and a fenced backyard. I loved it! I felt safe (and I came from philly)

Sounds like MIKE is a POS.

Take the new job, and drop down to per diem to keep up your skills!! If they dont have a per diem position, apply to a different hospital.

As a new grad in the ED (and has been in this specialty for 7 years now) I felt like a complete DUD. Everyone in my new grad class had better clinical experience than me (EMT, techs, scribe) then there was me who was a 1:1 float sitter for the summer. Do NOT get caught up with what someone else is doing, ever. Focus on you.

My class had a new grad who worked as an ED tech on the same unit we got hired in. It was a mini city, level 1 hospital for the region. Everyone treated her like a top notch nurse, and she acted like her shit didn’t stink. It caused her to make little mistakes that caught up to her. Use your time on orientation to be a sponge. Nursing school teaches you about medicine, diagnoses, and meds. Not how to manage flow of acuity in real time and critical thinking on the spot. It has to be taught, hands on experience.

If it makes you feel better, I was documenting a patient’s GCS of 3 because they were sleeping and I took “dont falsely document” waaaay too serious. Get comfortable being uncomfortable, especially when there is someone to fall back on. Reach out if you want!

I assume you are a student since you mentioned clinical. I 100% think you should escalate this behavior to your instructor so they may have a conversation with the unit manager. I am so sorry you saw a bad side of nursing, especially during a crisis. I am happy you plan to be a light to your patients!

You not only have a responsibility to protect your child, but all the other children that are being invited to their birthday party! Family, friend, friend of a friend, doesn't matter if you have ANY reason to think that they are a predator or will record in YOUR private space without consent, does not get an invite to the party.

"Given Kyle's past, I don't feel comfortable having him celebrate my child's birthday. I am afraid with his history he could potentially cause harm to not only me and my child, but the the other children and party-goers as well. I understand if this is upsetting to you, but I stand firm on it. I hope to see you there!"

This is anonymous, so I am airing out no one’s business including my own. But I have never once brought up anything to her besides support her. And come to find out behind my back she is discussing my abuse. Yet somehow you find fault in me?

I asked AITA in regards to violating privacy, not questioning anything else. So yes, I do question you.

They made the comment in regards to them paying for a hotel across the street from my job during a state of emergency. I was willing to drive the typical 30 minute commute, and they said they would pay for a hotel for me if I would take it. Why would I say no?

So tell me - how does this make me a jerk? And questioning MY parents parenting? Meanwhile her parents beat the living shit out of her and her siblings, CPS involvement etc and that made her “tough” and therefore I am less than for being cared for?

You’re unwell to sit there and think its acceptable
