  1. First job as a new grad- wondering if I sold out...

    Sent you a PM!
  2. Thanks for the book recommendation! I too, am interested in breaking into this lucrative, exciting field! Off to amazon.com to purchase the book! :)
  3. I totally agree. It was a "lesson learned" indeed. Never again will I associate myself with this woman again besides the absolute bare minimum. I don't know why I could ever trust her, she used to gossip about other nurses during my orientation with ...
  4. Thanks dudette10! I've already lost respect for her. I thought we were cool, but never again will I use her as a resource because she surely isn't the type to welcome my "stupid" questions. She is not the type of nurse I aspire to be AT ALL. She has ...
  5. Thank you. I think I can muster up enough courage to do this, but am afraid it will somehow backfire on me. To answer the other poster, during the time when she was my preceptor, she was for the most part condescending, and would often point out how ...
  6. I'm a new grad, it's been 2 months of working on my own on MST. A lot of things are still new to me and I'm still learning and doing my best. I know that I'm doing a good job because I've already gotten 2 excellent customer service cards from my pati...
  7. Thank you so much everyone for the useful info! I really appreciate all of your answers. :)))
  8. I work full time with benefits...would I lose benefits for not making up those 12 hours? Do we have the option of using our vacation hours to make up for lost time? Thanks for your help!
  9. Great News! I Finally Got a Job in Med-Surg/Tele!

    Congrats KaLynRN! I am very happy for you and glad it worked out for you :))
  10. I work on a med/surg tele unit and worked damn hard to land my first job with the constant rejection of new grads, bad economy, and "come back when you have 1 year of experience" line. I was so, so, sooooo excited to start in the beginning that I eve...
  11. Whenever I'm with my preceptor, it seems like she always knows EXACTLY what to say to the patient when we make our initial rounds...they always ask her questions and she always knows the answer...how do I do that?? So far, all I'm capable of doing i...
  12. I'm a new grad and just started out on a med/surg tele unit. I am very grateful for having a job and for all of the things I am going to learn. But after just 2 days of actually working with my preceptor (who is somewhat abrasive, passive-aggressiv...
  13. Thank you very much for your informative answer!
  14. Hi there! I'm a new grad RN, about to start in Med/Surg/Tele in a hospital that doesn't have a new grad program. I will, however, be assigned to a preceptor. I don't start until another week or so, and I want to be as prepared as possible. I have...
  15. Great News! I Finally Got a Job in Med-Surg/Tele!

    @ fireline: My resume was 2 pages long and my CV was also 2 pages long. I also made business cards and got them for free at vistaprint.com. All you need to pay for is shipping, which was under $5 if I remember correctly. Good luck!! @ herowneulogy...
