advice?

Hi all I'm new to posting here and wanted some advice. First off let me give some background....

I graduated nursing school 2 years ago in NY and it's taken this long to be allowed to work in the great state of TX.. I'm an LPN and I somehow (longer story) was summons to TPAPN. Anyway, I just had an interview for a surg/ortho floor and as long as my case mgr approves me I'll finally have my first job. So SCARED!! That's my first thought. But I'm excited.

Anyway I've been reading about stethoscopes. And I see that Littmann is #1 in most eyes. I was wondering if there were any major differences between the master cardiology and the master classic II. I read not to go for the expensive one as it may walk off but if the cardio is that much maybe I would want it. What do you all think?? Oh and since it is my first job would it be wrong if I went with the classic to get the pink breast cancer awareness one? I mean yes it's a good cause but it may make me stand out and I don't know if that's so good when I'm so new. Any advice would be great!!

TIA

Doesn't matter if it's your first job, you get the one you want! People will ask you about it and you tell them proudly what it represents.

Oh.........

Thanks....Well, I did want the pink awareness but I more wanted the master classic and they do that I guess. So, that's what I ordered today and it's the all black model.....I'm excited......

Thanks for pos. advice!

congrats on the job! I know it is hard finding a job in tpapn, I am there also... still waiting for approval from my cm. I think you should go with the not so expensive steth... Make sure you try it out before you buy it... Yes, they will walk off if they are expensive.. hell,, they walk off even if they are cheap.. just make sure you keep up with it!... I prefer the cheap ones personally.

Thanks again.....I ordered online so I didn't have a chance to try it out but it's gotta be better than my school scope. Well, keep your fingers crossed for me....the job's almost in the bag.....and I still need to get approval from my cm to take the job....but all seems to be going well.....finally....(I hope)
