I am stressed and struggling. I start my new grad job Monday and have already had such a headache.
Backstory I've been a Tech on this floor (ICU) for about 9 months and through that management has been TERRIBLE. Theres zero communication and leaves you constantly stressed thinking you are missing something. But I love the people I work with.
Now fast forward, I am starting Monday and I just got my schedule. I've been asking for it for weeks and she just never responded to my emails. Now that I have my schedule I notice I'm scheduled 48hrs some weeks and then scheduled 6'12s others. Then most are the normal 36hrs. While having 6 different preceptors throughout this schedule.
I feel terrible thinking I'm going to quit before I even start. Especially since this is an ICU job as a new grad.
does anyone have any advice?
It also could be an evil, passive-aggressive means of getting rid of her without having blood on their hands. I've seen it happen to others and it happened to me.
It could definitely be that, people were suprised when I got this job because the floor is actually SUPER OVERSTAFFED
