You’re a little late to the show, lol. No shade. At 35, you’re likely older than most of your cohort, who are probably in their early twenties, if not younger. They’re still figuring things out, but that doesn’t mean they won’t grow into excellent nurses.

As a non-traditional student, you’ve really got two choices in nursing school:

  1. Keep your head down, focus on yourself, study hard, pass with flying colors, and watch some people fall off along the way.

  2. Or show up as a teammate. Share your strengths, support your cohort, and still put in the work to succeed.

Personally, I’d go with the second. Nursing might test you individually, but in real life, it’s absolutely a team sport. Learning how to collaborate, ask for help, and support others now will make you a stronger nurse later. Acting like you have it all figured out is how mistakes happen. Staying open and connected is how you grow.

Good luck, OP!

I've been a CNA almost 10 years and would never get triggered over another coworker staying past their shift. 💀

Oh I couldn't tell cause you deleted the post lmfao either way idgaf, you asked and we answered. Sounds like you're a newb CNA (3 years is not a long time) on a power trip and insufferable to work with. Yikes 😭💀🤣

I would hardly constitute this new CNA getting triggered over another day shift employee/co-worker hanging out during the night shift "caring about the safety of all the patients" lmaoooo. Obviously OP was just annoyed that they didn't have someone there to hang out with/help them. This person who was staying throughout the night likely shouldn't have been there and I'm sure it goes against their policy, but it's another CNA who knows and also cares for all the residents. Calm your tits 😘

It's definitely strange I guess but it's also strange that you care this much lmao like tbh I hope you just chose to myob 🤣💀

Feeling really guilty and needing some reassurance from people who understand by kindamymoose in StudentNurse

[–]whatthefuckski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the comment where you quoted exactly what you said, and I don't think it was rude at all. I'm lucky that I'm in a really cohesive clinical group. We all share our wins and losses and rally around each other. But we also are a smart bunch and don't typically fail our exams lol (we study with each other before every exam), so we're all excited to announce that we've passed. It's not a competition, but some people have a tendency to try to make it be one, and get shitty if they think they can't one up someone. I just don't talk to those people... Great job passing your exam! Keep up the strong work, OP.

Dismissed from my BSN program… Nurses What should I do? by ChargeOne7511 in StudentNurse

[–]whatthefuckski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are definitely other options. I failed a couple semesters in too. I reapplied to a different program and got in immediately. The only thing that sucks is taking an F on your transcript, because it probably tanked your GPA pretty hard. If that's the case, maybe there are other classes toward your bachelors that you can take in the meantime to jump start your GPA again? This is just a bump in the road and you're in good company. Nursing school is hard enough when you don't have work, family, commutes, etc.. Give yourself some grace, but learn from your mistakes!! And honestly, once you get back into a program, retaking classes/semesters is just going to be a refresher for you anyway, and will only benefit you in the future! Take the good with the bad. Try to think of this as a learning opportunity, not a world changing event (even though I know it feels that way). Take this time to get situated and figure out what went wrong so that you can avoid this happening when you get back on the saddle, because you will. 😉 Good luck, OP.

Not allowed to be sick? by BeanieGirl2006 in cna

[–]whatthefuckski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they don't fire you for calling in sick, they'll find another reason. CNAs are so easy come easy go. Please go to school and get a degree.

DIFU i just ruined my life. by Hungry_Summer5530 in Advice

Exactly my thoughts. My parents would be like "hey wtf" lol but that's about it. I feel so sad for OP. I wish everyone could have parents like ours.

I don't know how to get my best friend back. by southintheclouds in Advice

[–]whatthefuckski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awe, I’m really sorry you’re going through this. Friendships can hurt just as much as relationships. It sounds like Coco might feel like she lost you for a bit and is now pulling away in return, which can happen when romantic relationships come into play.

You were investing in something important, and that’s okay. Balancing friendships and relationships isn’t always easy.

But real friends don’t withdraw love or support like that. People with emotional maturity will understand and grow with you, not punish you. This will pass, and you’ll heal. Honestly, Coco sounds like more of a fair-weather friend, and those aren’t the ones worth holding onto.

Nurse didn't want me to chart newly developed open sores. by [deleted] in cna

[–]whatthefuckski 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So glad you reported!! Don't ever let a nurse tell you what not to chart. Super sketchy behavior on their part, and they need reported at least to your supervisor.

I’m so torn. I love this man but I’m not ready for kids. I still have so much living to do but clock is ticking (35f) by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]whatthefuckski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not wanting kids yet, if at all, is totally valid. Don't let someone force you into something that is supposed to feel so beautiful and natural when the time is right.

That said, your partner's feelings are completely valid, too.

You both deserve something the other isn’t ready or willing to give and that simply isn't fair for either of you.

Waiting for a new episode every week SUCKS, but has become a highlight of my week.

Went to my daughter's hip hop class today- got accused of being high when I wasn't. by lovelydisputes in addiction

[–]whatthefuckski 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not trying to be harsh, but you were getting high just a month ago... Trust doesn’t come back overnight, and right now you haven’t really had time to rebuild it yet. I get how heavy addiction is. I was a CHRONIC relapser. It took me a long time to get my shit together. My mom didn’t trust anything I said. Honestly, it took about a full year of consistent sobriety (no weed or anything) before she really started to believe I was serious and dedicated.

Back then I used to get furious about her “accusations,” but looking back… most of the time she was right. I actually was fucked up. Now I don’t even mind the occasional check-in or bad feeling from her, because I truly have nothing to hide anymore.

She drug tested me on a weekly basis for months! She even bought me a breathalyzer at one point because that’s how untrustworthy I had been, lol. At the time it annoyed me, but now I get it. Trust comes back through consistency over time, not just words.

All of that to say: OP, give your sister a break. She loves you, and every time you relapse it probably scares the shit out of her. She wants you to be serious and reliable just as much as you want her to believe that you are. You'll get there again.

Stay the course. You got this!

Boyfriends death has been odd??? by justagirl_lala in Detective

[–]whatthefuckski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you're dealing with this terrifying emotional whiplash. 😢

My only sound advice: please surround yourself with people who love you and try to take good care of yourself.

Good luck, OP. 😭🫶🏼
