Suzi-
This is weird to say, but my office offers online undergraduate nutrition and anatomy classes- they are the FastTrack classes here and they are not just for nurses... [link]

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

She has found a nutrition class, but I'll send her the info about anatomy. Not weird to pass on the information - isn't that part of what we do here?
Er...8 am is definitely business hours.
I disagree, even in California I wouldn't assume that, but if she called at 7:42 am, she's the one who threw the social rules out the window.
Our sales are up 10-15% this year over last. There are definitely a lot more people interested in going to (or back to) school.
I didn't want to sound like a salesperson!
With regard to school- our 1 year nursing program for people with a BA or BS is crazy full of applicants. Like 200 - 300 applicants for 40 seats. And we literally have no more classrooms or office space for more instructors even if we could accept them all.
Yikes Erin, I wish you two well. Unfortunately, I don't know anything helpful for that situation.
Erin, that sounds like a shitty situation. I wish I had an ounce of advice for you.
I fit into MY PROM DRESS. Of 17 years ago!
Very cool! And not shallow.
My boss spilled coffee on her desk two days ago, and she can't stop talking about how mad she is at her self and how could she do that?!?!
Seriously? Two days ago? Dude. Let it go.
Blah. I'm working from home again today. The coughing fits keep turning into wretching fits and that just... sucks. And shouldn't be in the workplace. You know?
Sophia, I've been speculating that the nursing programs are in super high demand (wait list for nursing classes here can be 2 years). And it sounds like you all have found that to be true also, which is interesting. RNs is one of the projected high growth employment areas.
I came into work at 8 today. Motivated in no small part by curiosity to see if New Guy would too.
I still feel like crap on toast and he's not here.
Quick! Someone track down the boss and send him over to New Guy's (empty) desk!
At the bookstore, we sell lots of prep books for the nursing school test, more than for any other non-general test.
