I just want to see less nurses on shows like "Snapped" or "Fatal Vows" My husband is starting to look at me sideways!

I'm not a school nurse, but I am a parent and I THANK YOU for putting up with my kids! Especially when my daughter decided to eat the rubber on the playground as part of a dare. Bless you all!

If you have access to Lippincott it may have a video or visual for you.

Whatever you do please keep talking-you don't need to keep this bottled up. We here support you-we all have challenges and need help! It's too hard going it alone.

Let us know how things go and best of luck!

Your first year of work is your last year of school. You will get it-trust me. Ask lots of questions and hang in there!!!

I'm just here for the comments...

I'm a member of the world's greatest profession. Greatest. Not oldest people!

At least the spiders use it...

All that luck, and they still have to wait an hour to see the doctor...

Hmmm. This is hard and I really do want to help. I have a MSN in something similar to yours and I work in quality management at a corporate level with hospitals nationwide. But again that's healthcare. I would suggest marketing but that field is pretty competitive already. Work with an insurance company in some capacity maybe? Check back in and let us know how things turned out. Best of luck to you!!!

Maybe you can get support during your years of nursing school. Clinical rotations can be crazy too, so think ahead on how to best deal with childcare. Once you graduate perhaps you can look for work in a clinic setting, or someplace that is not open 24/7. Best of luck!

After 12 years on the floor, I now work a 7-4 non-patient care job. I think without the patients working daily is easier. I rarely bring work home, and if I do it's because it's my choice to do so. This body is worn, tattered, and ready to be scattered-so 12 hours are no longer an option. I do have plenty of energy when I get home which is also a great thing.

Take the interview and see what happens. Although you do not deal with the office manager, what is going on will eventually affect you. It would be wise to gather any documentation you can of any unlawful events and by all means save yourself!

Are they implying that nurses are now like computers? That can't be right because computers don't care for money. While nurses (myself in particular) seem to thrive on it. Time to go shopping on the internet while at work...
