2. Complaining about your employer, loudly, at nurses' station

   rnlane replied to Emergent's topic in Relations

   I have found that the people complaining are generally unhappy people anyway. I have had jobs I really disliked but did not burden the patients with my dissatisfaction. I stayed at the job while i searched for a new one and then left.

3. Potential nursing students who dont want to hear the truth

   rnlane replied to smartnurse1982's topic in General Nursing

   We need nurses! I try to encourage students. Its hard enough to be in nursing school right now. If they ask, then tell them what you know in a caring way. I wouldn't offer unsolicited "statistics". Nurses are hard enough on new nurses as it is I thin...

4. You Know You're a Nurse When...

   rnlane replied to Brownms46's topic in Humor

   This is the problem in nursing, no compassion anymore. I totally get all of these, I have been a nurse for over 20 years in various settings, but really..joking about the suffering of people is not something I find funny.
