[h=5]Top 10 confessions of a brand new nurse: week 1

[/h] [h=5]10. Day 1 sucks. You're a fish out of water struggling to breath, to fit in, to prove to yourself you're gonna make it.

[/h] [h=5]9. Don't speak to family...seriously. At this point "Hello" is sufficient. They ask questions...hard ones and don't ******** it.

[/h] [h=5]8. You won't "hit the ground running" even the BSN are dazed and confused. You'll hit the ground flat on your face...and it's gonna leave skid marks.

[/h] [h=5]7. Code brown exists...and it ain't funny no more.

[/h] [h=5]6. Common injuries at the house like minor lacerations become child's play. I've seen worse and lets not panic.

[/h] [h=5]5. Don't worry about how you look in your outift...you look stupid either way .

[/h] [h=5]4. "*** is that?!!" Is an understatement

[/h] [h=5]3. "Oh ok, yea I know what to do." No the **** you don't.

[/h] [h=5]2. Your mouth will say some stupid ****...daily...in an instant..without warning.

[/h] [h=5]1. Its GONNA get better.. [/h]
