"Welcome to the (slow) St. Louis Board. Even though this board is slow I usually check it out about once a day.
Are you working in Columbia or are you going to school there? Do you like working nights? I used to work nights a long time ago and really hated it but it worked out best for me at the time. " -Written by Mrs. Goose
I do work in Columbia at the VA Hospital. I am a Registered Respiratory Therapist and went to school for that in STL. I worked at Barnes-Jewish for 2 1/2 years before moving to Columbia. I got married...thats the only reason why I moved. I loved the city but he loves the country so Columbia was our compromise.
I LOVE working nights. Less BS to deal with, pts. families are usually home and I get paid more money for (usually) less work.
Re: Mrs. Goose
I loved working in the ER at Barnes-Jewish. I heard stories of when it used to be two different hospitals. Very interesting.
I love what I do. I could never be a nurse because I can't deal with poop, but I do like being a Respiratory Therapist. It is rewarding for me and I am good at it. I know I can be better and I plan on being the best that I can. What do you do now? How long have you been in STL?
