I quit my job today!

Published

Hello Fellow Nurses,

Today I quit my nursing job after working for nearly 3 years. In March my facility was acquired by a local organization after many bad state discrepancies. You would think I would have quit after seeing state enter our building almost monthly. I didn't because I really loved my supervisors and my co-workers so I toughed it out. I came to the facility fresh out of nursing school and thought there was no where else for me. Over the past couple of months I have sat back and watched many of my long time co-workers and friends get fired or quit. Most were wrongly fired and accused of things they had no control over. Due to that I began to pursue other facilities and somehow found 2 jobs to replace this one. At first I was guilty and refused to go to my scheduled physical and orientation at the new job I was given out of fear of leaving a comfort zone that I knew wasn't comfortable. I thought things over and yesterday I called the DON and discussed with her my issue and she gave me a second chance because she believed I would be a great asset to her facility. I am so happy I went through with this decision :yeah:. I had my physical today and will go to orientation on Monday. I just had to vent and share my happiness with the people I know who can understand how hard it gets in this profession we are in.

Thanks for Listening (reading),

Tammie, LPN
