Why so many negative nurses in the field?

[Nursey916]

I'm by no means a new nurse, been around the block for awhile now...but why are there so many negative nurses? Don't get me wrong I'm not saying ALL, I've met some who are just sweet as pie and so helpful. I recently started a new job though and yet againnnnn I immediately notice the rapport and overall attitude of the people I work with. Is it the burnout or what? I understand first hand that nursing can be very stressful at times but seriously what is the problem?

Being negative only makes that person's day that more difficult.
