I graduated in July of 2009. Like many other new grads, I "grew up" being told that I would never have a hard time finding a job, that employers would be begging me to work for them, and that I would never have to worry. I crisply recall one of my nursing instructors telling me that I should "sit down when you get your first paycheck." Isn't it interesting how even the thickest bubble can be popped by the smallest pin? Nurses Announcements Archive Article
