Do you dream about work?

Published

Let me start out by saying that I love my job and I love what I do but sometimes it creeps into my dreams.

Last night in my dream I was running from room to room looking for a 10ml syringe and nothing was stocked. I kept opening drawers to find them empty and all the storage carts were just empty boxes as well. It was so frustrated but not that far from the truth at times.

Just wondering but any others might dream about regarding work. Is it good, bad, or more of a nightmare?

I waited tables for years before I was a nurse, and I still have dreams about that more often than nursing. The nursing dreams I do have are often some weird combination of waitressing and nursing, and I'm always running behind and forgetting things/patients/customers.

Nursing feels like waitressing sometimes. Gingerale with a side of Dilaudid? Coming up.
