Nurses General Nursing
Published Jul 12, 2015
Ok, I've had it. I'm tired of whippersnapper nurses, smart alecky new grads who think that their gold plated degrees trump experience.
I'm hungry for young flesh.
I'm officially a Crusty Old Bat, to put it nicely.

My granny had a rotary phone. Best thing ever.
I had to explain to my children why we "roll" down the windows in the car.

I'm not a COB. I will never be a COB. I dislike cliques of any kind (and I simultaneously shudder and roll my eyes at the idea that there are "cool kids" here). Seeing all the obsequiousness being displayed in this thread is obnoxious. No matter how many years I will be a nurse, I will never be crusty and grouchy to new nurses. I am impatient with ineptitude and stupidity, but that's irrespective of my career choice or number of years therein.

I don't know you but you already annoy me. I could list the reasons why but you wouldn't get it.

Ok, hold on a sec, please. klone's ok, this thread just hit her the wrong way and she bowed out awhile ago.
We all have buttons that, when pushed, make us cranky, irritable, or bat-crap crazy. Don't give up on her. She makes good points.

Or not. Now I'm really confused. It's past my bedtime, I'm just going to curl up under my blankie. *sigh*

But you know, a bit of pee ain't gonna bother me!

I've been a nurse 2/3 of my life. I wonder what that makes me.
A legit straight up superhero? Or saint? I don't know if I could do 40 years on the floor without having a complete meltdown one day lol.

It's not the years at the bedside that are dragging me down, it's the flat out disrespect from the brand new nurses.
I don't understand how someone can be disrespectful to someone you could learn so much from. It baffles me. I also don't understand hating a police officer simply because they are a police officer.
I'm weird I guess.
