We had this nurse retire last year, this year she came on hard times and our floor took up a collection for Christmas. No specifics on what was wrong which I appriciated the confidentiality of the situation. When I started and until she retired she always went out of her way to be mean and hateful to about 75% of the staff, especially newbies. I dreaded when I had to work with her and to make matters worse see was always in charge. The day she retired was a blessing for me. I am not a spiteful person and would give the shirt off my back if someone really needed it. I did not give any money to this fund and it is over now but I feel really guilty because it is Christmas and one is supose to forgive. Has anyone else ever been in this situation and what did you do.....
