Why is the most popular thing here in NL is the games?! Considering so many of the past members have been complaining about this! Gosh, make a new topic so it doesn't get so boring! I see many old members are slowly disappearing from NL, aside from being boring, some posters are really mean, they cannot comment without being mean to others. I love NL and wish i could see the people i have been friends in here before...

And so maybe we get a clue as to why nurses are often viewed with disdain by other medical professionals

The games... as a rule .. are moronic... much like the nurses that ask to be my freind regardless of the times I deny the request.. I have nothing at all in common with most of the posters on this net.. especially the ubergamers.

Oh yeah, i pity those who made the mistake of inviting you,  you can never be  a friend, ohhhh...i guess you dont have a friend!

This should not be an area even (or especially) anonymously to insult any group. I have the guts to do so in the open. All it gets you is a threatening letter to back off. I have a collection of them. But I go after individuals who have said something to, or about, me.

I said it before and will say it again. I have worked with many Filipino nurses in 7 states in 30 years. As a rule they are highly educated and driven to succeed. They as a rule give great patient care, know the meds and I feel confident working with them. As a rule. There are individual differences always.

The complaints I have heard? They hang around with each other and speak their native language when they eat lunch or have a break. Whoopie. The culture they come from is so different than the one[s] in the US. Who can blame them for that? Lay off the Filipinos. And all other racial or ethnic groups. Attack the issues. Help us move ahead as a society and country Or at least stay out of the way while the rest of us do.

But we Pinoy nurses have nothing else to do.....

Whoever posted this, i say you are a coward! Have some balls for God's sake! Say it in the open! Racist! Why are you so bitter with the Filipinos, why i  feel too much insecurities in your tone, oh well guess maybe something bad had happened to you in the past that involves a filipino, thats why you are soooooo bitter, huh?!

Im loosing my composure, i forgot, i should not stoop down on your level, you are an intelligent person i guess but you use that in a wrong way, what a shame!  I pity you!

    Apparently, a member here likes to insult and belittle you.

    Taking offense is natural, and so is fighting back. But your responses seem to encourage this person and arm him with more effrontery.

     Use this member's ill will to serve you; let it make you smarter; let it make you stronger.

     Ask yourself, for instance, "What's going on with this member?" You might decide the member's a child, or possibly emotionally disturbed, or possibly harboring a personality disorder.

     It's already clear the member is self-destructive. No one helps himself in life by antagonizing others.

     What generally happens to self-destructive people? My guess is that few of them win the lottery and live happily ever after.

Hiding under an anonymous name gives anyone the balls to say whatever they want, my feeling is that people aren't as mean if they have their real name or real pic beside what they say.

Well what do you know???!!  You are nothing compared to Filipino Nurses, I am so 100% sure of that, many can attest to that honey!

Whoever you are, shame on you! You are so damn rude, where's your education?! Is that what you are proud of?!

Tsk,tsk, poor  you get a life!  You may know everything about nursing but your character sucks!

 

 

 

Get your panties out of a wad and read this... There is nothing racist about the word PINOY...

Everyone has a reason why they play the games. It has nothing to do with being Filipino.  I play the games and anyone that does knows that there are probably more non Filipinos playing them. I also post in other forums and most of them, especially the political ones, turn into fights. The games are nice, they are fun and everyone can play. 

I also want to say that I have quite a few filipino friends on here and every single one of them are nice people. Lets put away the hatred and have fun on whatever it is you like about Nursing Link.

If everyone who complained about the games spent the same amount of time actually contributing to this community, it would be a different place. Instead of whining about something you don't even have to look at, why not actually post something of substance?
