Thanks for your encouragement. I'm afraid going into clinics I would lose my skills and work intermittent pool at another hospital doing floor nursing to keep my skills up. What do you think?

Hi, I've been a nurse for 2 years in a cardiac and medical sugical floor. It's very stressful work and on top of that there's personalities clashes. I feel lonely that I don't fit into the click that hang out at the front desk and gossip and backstab. I'm not that kind of person and don't like to repeat gossip. I get along with about half the nurses on the floor and the other half are ok. I just feel left out that I don't hang out a the front desk.... The nurses I get a long with say they come to work to work. I had a conflict with the charge RN the other day over my assignments and she started banging her fist on her desk, I cried a little recomposed myself and went on the rest of my day. I spoke with another RN about equitable assignments and she said you have to have relationships with certain people, I'm guessing the charge RN, but I don't think this is fair. I heard a lot of time when this charge RN takes pt, she' is incompetant. I'm considering leaving to a clinic job but I heard clinics are for nurses who are burned out. I feel like I'm not learning on my floor because I'm constantly running, eating on the run and stressed. Any advice or similar experience?
