I was talking to one of my good friends. I've worked with her, yes she is rather difficult at work. She loathes those with skill levels beneath her. She is belittling, condescending, she undermines the confidence of less experienced souls.
She is an IV therapist now. I know, from talking to her, that she, herself feels insecure because she is so specialized. I know about her other insecurities.
She has a well earned reputation, in my opinion, for 'eating her young'.
Today I was talking to her. We often talk shop. I got to talking about someone in my dept (ER) experiencing some difficulties, and of course she got on to the subject of poor Jane, who is soooooo terrible, blah, blah, blah, but is fortunately going back to Tele, yada, yada, yada.
I was talking to my favorite Nursing Sup. We were wondering why really fun and cool people are so difficult in the workplace? She knew who we were talking about, by the way...
