I left a job where I was very unhappy and spinning my wheels everyday just to get things done. I was hired as a risk manager. So that was what I did, but, when I brought what I found to the Administrator, she took it personal and was quite nasty to me. I could not work there, see what was happening, and not be able to make the changes that needed to be made. I called today and gave specific reasons why I would not be back. The Administrator has called me and left a message that she wants me to come back but I just can't. I am salary but when I work over, I get the same pay; however if I take off anytime, it gets deducted even though I have worked overtime. Plus I was lied to about how much I would be paid, and the insurance for a family is over 500 a month. She has known that the way she speaks to me at times bothers me. I was told "That is the way she is" well, I won't be talked to that way and I won't argue, fuss and fight for changes that must be made anymore. It exhausts me and makes me physically ill.

Anyway, I have alot of exciting job prospects out there. I have been called back for a second interview as a Nurse consultant. Plus I have an interview at a psych hospital. Wish me luck in my job search.....thanks....

Best wishes to you, Ginger! I am a long time nurse and have walked away from jobs that sounded great but turned out horrific. Looking back, I only regret that I spent as much time as I did in abusive situations.

I honestly believe there are great nursing jobs out there. All the best to you!

Congrats for walking away when you knew what was best for you. Not everyone can do that. Im sure you will find a much more peaceful job for your self! Good luck!
