    Help Me Make Peace With Myself

    deeDawntee replied to handyrn's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    How much do you feel that you can just "be yourself" at your job?

    deeDawntee posted a topic in General Nursing

    Recently, I started a second job, (and as second jobs go, it has been pretty darned exciting, it is in an ER and it is my first venture into ER nursing). But, as my second job, I haven't felt the...

    deeDawntee replied to deeDawntee's topic in General Nursing

    You make some good points. I work with some who are out of the mainstream and although they aren't talking openly about their views or situations in life, they aren't hiding who they are either. I...

    How much do you feel that you can just "be yourself" at your job?

    deeDawntee replied to deeDawntee's topic in General Nursing

    I grew up in a rural area and I know of what you speak. To move into that situation from a vast experience is understandably difficult. Blech!! I am glad you have come to tolerate it and even thrive...

    deeDawntee replied to deeDawntee's topic in General Nursing

    why is it that security in our job equals security in being ourselves? how do you define being yourself? i don't necessarily think it means "letting it all hang out" and saying everything that is on...

    Oh my gosh, how cool is that. What a shame that you aren't able to share that incredible "wayfarer" part of yourself with others. I would love to have you as one of my coworkers and to be able to...

    How much do you feel that you can just "be yourself" at your job?

    deeDawntee replied to deeDawntee's topic in General Nursing

    Do you think not really being able to be yourself is a "nurse" thing, a "female" thing or just the nature of being employed? Is it the "role" we are expected to play? When my manager struts onto...

    Anyone else studying for CCRN exam?

    deeDawntee replied to deeDawntee's topic in CCU, Coronary, Cardiac

    If I recall, you have a 3 month window in which to schedule your exam, once you apply to take it. With your vast experience, that will be plenty of time if you spend an hour or so a day preparing....

    deeDawntee replied to ReinventingMyselfAgain's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am an old time nurse starting in a new environment and even as a nurse with 10 years experience, it sucks being new. Some people are just plain mean to you when you are new. They don't care how...
