I am all set to go into ICU, but just today i found out that 2 ICU nurses don't like the idea that me a new grad coming into ICU. My friend who is in her 3rd year told me that her preceptor (one of the ICU nurses and her best friend). Keep talking about me and the other person who is also being orientated into ICU, and keep saying were young, inexperienced, and etc to other nurses and that we should work on med/surg for a year. I have not worked with these 2 nurses nor do they know me, i feel like i am already having issues with my future co-workers. I also found out that they are the type that talk behind every nurses back and don't realize that students are listening to them and they also criticize other ICU nurses' work. I am a type of person who can be very shy, but i take all of my work seriously and always give a 100%, but for them to judge me and talk about me is not fair. As i said before there are ICU nurses that have watched me during preceptorship and undergrad and have encourged me to join their team, and are ready to take me in. But these 2 ICU nurses have other things on thier minds. Did i mention that there are only 6 ICU nurses working in this hospital. I don't want to come home each day upset, but at the same time i want to work in ICU.
