I love talking to all of you!

Nurses General Nursing

Hi everyone- I just wanted to say that this bulletin board is such a great place. So many people have written really insightful posts. I only discovered this site about a month ago, but now I look forward to checking out some of the new posts almost every day. Now I have a chance to talk about those stressors I'm often too busy to talk about at work ( and which I long ago discovered that non-nursing friends and relatives don't want to hear about ). In some ways it's even better than *****ing with my coworkers because the anonymity encourages more honesty. Plus, I find it makes me feel alot better to find that other nurses all over the country are facing the same frustrations I am ( although sometimes it's painful too ). You guys make me proud to be a nurse. When I read your posts I know I'm part of a smart, tough, hard-working, no-nonsense ( or maybe I should say no bullshit ) group of people. Happy holidays!

Welcome! I just discovered this nice site. It gives me a chance to vent and not feel alone with all the frustrations, joy, and pain. I look forward in reading your posts. Happy Holidays :-)

Hey, all!!!!! Grouchy, you don't sound grouchy at all!!!!! Isn't this bb great. Site great!!!!!

I am in decision making of do I stay or do I move, related to work situation. Change within facility I am in but to different unit/speciality. Many factors. Should love to come into work at least 95.9% of your days.

Thanks for all the replies. I was so excited to see that my post has been read by nurses from all over the U.S., Canada, England, and even the Phillipines! Amazing. I feel like some geeky kid with a new pen pal.

Several people said I don't sound grouchy. Luckily for you guys, I don't post (or do anything I don't have to do) when I'm tired. When I'm tired I'm grouchy. And, after a year on the night shift, I'm pretty tired.

Fortunately, I go to the day shift soon. (Unfortunately, I have to rotate to nights). For now I remain pale, irritable, slovenly, sluggish Grouchy.

I love it here too. I just finished my NA course and have my state exam tomorrow. Then I can start my pre-req's. I find everyone here so inspiring and usually helpful. Its nice to see other students that are going through the same things. It gets really tuff sometimes!

But I wish everyone all the luck in the world!

Stay strong, Be happy, Be successful! :)

Yes I do agree with all you said! This site is one of the million things we should be proud of.;) as a NURSE. With a multi-task that is put on our shoulder,@ least we can still afford to participate with all the issues that face nurses today. (i think it is one great talent we nurses have- TIME MANAGEMENT)

I've been part of the silent majority for a long time, but then it's just recently that i decided to let my presence felt!

PROUD AS A NURSE:)
