Thank you so much for the positive feedback I'll def look into classes and talking to a student advisor :)

Thank you everyone for the feedback, I feel better already:-)

Hi, So I have been struggling with this fear for a while now. I have been wanting to be a nurse for about a year and a half now. I feel so passionate about it and I am taking going to start to take my pre reqs over the summer. I'm so excited! But.....I was a busser for resturants for about two years and then I started serving in the Fall at a resturant that I left and then came back to (to be a server not a busser) and of course I SUCKED!!!! I was really really good on slower days but as soon as things started to get busy I would clam up and forget things easily. One night that stills haunts me now 4 months later was when I lost the resturant 100 dollars that night...(they were short 100). The thing was none of us expected it to get that busy and I was two weeks into the job and working 1-2 nights a week so I had a million questions but no one could help me anwser them, I was a nervous reck, forgot appetizers, messed up drink orders. I worked a month later still slow days but I stopped because I was working a day job so it got to be to much. But since then I feel like my confidence with multi tasking has drastically changed. My friend told me shes never seen such bad service before(talking about that night). I feel like my confidence with people and service is excellent but with multi tasking I'm haunted by that day! I now feel like I can't be a good nurse especially if peoples lives are at steak! So I guess my question is is it true then if you can't waitress you can't be a nurse? Nursing seems like my dream job but I won't take it if it means I'm going to put peoples lives at risk. -Sarah
