You know, I've lost count of the number of times I've read this comment (just read it a few times in another thread).
What I don't get is most of the people (if not all) who write this are women themselves. Does this mean that the women who write this comment are better than all other women? Does this mean that if they were in charge, the other women they work with wouldn't want to work with them?
I know that these forums encourage complaints and that sometimes we write things we don't really think, but this comment is way too common and is said out loud.
You know what is going to solve this problem? If we stop blaming difficult work conditions on "working with women" and blame it on what it is: working with difficult people. I've worked with both men and women. Some great people in both groups and some horrid people in both groups.
I believe that some people should grow up and stop blaming "working with women" as the root of all problems in nursing. Sheesh.
