Hi everyone,So tomorrow is my last day at my 1st RN job because I received an opportunity somewhere else. I wanted to do something nice for my co-workers because they have been amazing and very supportive. I wanted to buy them breakfast or do a lunch catering type thing but its a little over my budget and very last minute. I was thinking maybe of buying a bunch of bagels but I feel bagels is too typical. Or would you prefer bakery pastries in the early morning? Any last minute ideas? Thanks!

A mini buffet that pretty much covered everyone's tastes.

It's cheaper and it's heartfelt.On my last day at the clinic they had a huge party for me, and I still brought in "my" shrimp and "my" banana choc chip bread.After I left I sent flowers and a note to the DON and to HR, because my girls were/are majorly unappreciated.Best of luck in your new venture, OP!
