    LvlupNurse replied to LvlupNurse's topic in Career Support

    That may be true as far as positives and negatives and I account for the negatives and am striving to improve everyday. I just feel like when you’re not clear, it’s rough to ever know what you truly need to improve on. This has affected me I can tell...
