How do you girls make the boxes enclosed with the previous messages? I have not been smart enough to figure it out. Thanks a bunch. Sounds like some great recipes that I will have to try.

If you look up at the top right corner, you will see a button that says 'quote'. Click on that and it copies the post and takes to a reply box.

unfortunately, caffeine is the only way to get through a 12-13 hour day at the hospital when you are going on only 2-3 hours of sleep!!! Had a hellacious (?spelling  ) day today and caffeine was my FRIEND  |
Nurses deserve every penny they earn but when will admin realize those 12 hr days aren't healthy for ANYBODY involved or any institution? |
good morning, nr....when i worked at the state prison in wyoming, they worked us nurses 13 1/2 hour days so that we could get "our full 40 hours in and therefore get the wonderful benefits" .....then i had the joy of driving the 50 miles home!! |
Im just finishing with schooling and was thinking about working the 12 hour shifts, if they are available to me. Im glad there are other nurses out here. Going from being married 20 years to a farmer/rancher to being on my own. Its a big change. How did you get through boards????? with out being so nervous and where did you start out as when you just passed boards???? |
welcome aboard, moon shadow!!! passed my boards in 1994 and my first job was in a small 9 bed hospital, which just so happens to be where i am working right now!! i have also worked in a "big city" ( if you call bozeman a big city), two state prisons and a few nursing homes!! yes, i was sooo very nervous taking my state boards, but when i got in the room and sat at the computer, it was amazing how everything i had learned came back to me!! Actually, i prefer to work the 12 hour shifts compared to 8 hours because you work 3 days and then you are off for 4 compared to only being off for 2!! Much better for my family time, too!!

Thanks for the welcome. I only drove by Bozeman, actually im by Rapid City now and came from NorthDakota small town cities ..so this big city stuff is hard to get use to. Been to Billings to buy show heifers at the NILE. but thats about all. Thats good to know I think I rather be in a small hospital you have more experiences rather then just one area. I give you credit being on a ranch and working I was always so busy to have a job and hit ya hard when you don't know really anything but horses, cattle, and field work...But one good thing animals dont talk back....
