    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    Yes I do have a hospital about 5 mins away from my home. But with all of the covid madness I wasn’t sure if it was a good idea to start another job so soon. Also if I would be marketable after...

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Corpsman2OncRN's topic in General Nursing

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    Did you cut down hours at all to avoid getting sick? Right now I am part time I'm considering switching to days or going per diem night until I can adjust. I did not imagine that this would happen....

  11. How do you deal with workplace discrimination?

    Lovethenurse2b25 posted a topic in General Nursing

    For first time in my nursing career I left work with my feelings extremely hurt not because of my performance but because I'm not allowed to be myself. So I just started working at a teaching...

  12. How do you deal with workplace discrimination?

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    I am in the process of that now. My employer wants to sabotage me. I was cleared to return to work today per the NP at occupational health. She stated she would email the supervisor the clearance form...

  13. 16 Hour Shifts

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Nursing

    I would simply tell the supervisor that at the moment I have no desire to work any overtime and not respond to any text messages or call. It's not worth your physical or mental

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    To make matters worse, a few weeks into the job I ended up getting sick with covid. When I notified the supervisor she was very upset because it meant she didn't have enough staff. Throughout my 10...

  15. How do you deal with workplace discrimination?

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    Update— so I over heard my supervisor talking about an old employee who left for traveling nursing. One of the things she mentioned to the group of nursing she was talking to was that the person had...

  16. How do you deal with workplace discrimination?

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for the advice. I think part of the issue is wearing mask. People are not able to see our faces. However the supervisor never actually sat down to talk with me. She was always in meetings...

  17. How do you deal with workplace discrimination?

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    Im not sure if staying will make the situation better. My preceptor begged me to stay. She stated “if you leave it would make me look bad”. Also that “ if I changed my personality to fit theirs...

  18. How do you deal with workplace discrimination?

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    I do believe they are testing me. There are at least five other new nurses training. One other nurse trainee worked almost all the same days as me and she seemed just as quiet. I honestly don’t see...

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    Yes it is an ICU unit. My preceptor said that they are use to nurses being loud which for me as a new nurse on the unit I don’t think is appropriate. It is bothering more than I imagined. My first...

  20. Starting a new job with some concerns

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

    I got in touch with OCC health. It turns out my supervisor requested that I be retested because she did not think it was possible to fail an N95 fit test. She went as far as calling infection control...

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Lovethenurse2b25's topic in General Nursing

  25. How to ask for part-time after accepting full-time position

    Lovethenurse2b25 replied to Alexxoxox's topic in General Nursing

    It doesn’t hurt to ask. But there is no guarantee they will allow you to go part time. I would be open to part time and per diem just to keep your foot in the door. Are the commute and working two...
