Anxiety is controlling you release it and get through finals call the cops on him and move in with a friend till finals are over.

That would be impossible for me and frankly just sad.

Costco employees do leave I was one of them and am now a RN. Remember that you work 3 days a week and you get to be with your kids as a registered nurse. At Costco I was making $17.00/hour in 2001. But never knew when I would be able to see my kids.

Forgot to mention we are 100% paper charting

So, it's my third day precepting, as a new nurse and I'm beating myself up because I had to stay an hour and a half over to chart my narrative. I had 3 patients on my own and my preceptor had two. By 18:30 I was only at 9:00 on one of my patients. I had a wound vac w a PCA a SI pt. and an abusive pt. with Q2 Dilaudud. My preceptor seemed really irritated. And said I don't think you can handle 3 patients. You are really behind. Feeling like poop any thoughts?

Did you find a problem with passing 14:00 mess an hour late?

Kudos to him for having the personality for putting pills in a bottle.

My reason for wanting to disclose is null now that I know I can apply for FMLA via HR and leave mgr. out thx so much!

Why would you use the word abuse? Is there more to the story than what is shared here?(self reflection) answer not required. If not there is no reason to carry guilt. We are human we all fail we hope at the end of our lives we have touched people and made a positive impact. Remind yourself of each time you have done that instead.

Yes you may

You aren't hijacking, all comments are welcomed. I was not required to disclose in my state however nursing school did have physical and mental health requirements, which I met.

Btw current meds: Effexor ED 75mg/bid Ritalin 36mg/bid(ADHD) Inderal 20mg PRN anxiety havent been on any mood stabilizers for more than 6 years. ETOH PRN😁

I agree I definitely believe that if we can't advocate for ourselves how can we advocate for our patients, believing that I am not flawed inherently because I have this diagnosis is pivotal. I don't know how to go about starting that. Luckily I have some time until I can sit for the NCLEX and I will be working in a student nurse capicity which Is a much smaller scope of practice(basically a NA). In this 10-14 week time period I will be able to show my work ethic and my ability to work well with others as a team player in a much lower stress level position.

Amazingly helpful this is a great community!

Thanks for the vote of confidence!
