Yikes!
I have seen the way it is out there, and already I know I never want to be a floor nurse- I agree, the patients are great- it's the rest of the games and politics that sucks...all of my classmates don't understand why I feel that way that I do- they can't wait to get out there and start working. I tell them that I will go crazy if I have to do that kind of nursing.
I'm hoping to find some kind of independent work or something in the community so that I'm not stuck in a hospital all day playing games. Wish me luck.
I dislike the job, I find myself becomong depressed even thinking about returning to nursing. Nursing has never brought be a feeling of well-being. I dislike working with others who's only enjoyment in life is treating others poorly. I've had it happen to me, and I seen it done to others. I know other nurses who have left, and have jobs outside of the profession. I just can't bring myself to return to nursing.

I would never recommend nursing to anyone. I am tired of the stupid games, and nasty personalities. Nurses are abusive to one another. I've been a nurse for 12 years, 10 years at my first job, and 9 months at my second. The thought of working as a nurse again makes me want to vomit.
The only thing I ever liked about nursing was the patients. They were nice, and I really enjoyed caring for them.
