If I could have walked off the job…

…I would have last night.

I SERIOUSLY HATE HATE HATE the doctor who is on this week.

I usually am not so vehement in my emotions, but this doctor is very mean.  I was yelled at again last night and all because I was TRYING to get an order followed and I’m just so damn sick and tired of it.

I really mean it.  If I could have just walked out at that point, I would have.  It would have felt amazing.

Instead I swore and cried…my usual.

And had an awful rest of the night.  I STILL feel down and worthless.  I just hate that that doctor makes me feel so inferior and incompetent when I KNOW that I am a good nurse.

Just when I thought that I was having a good stretch.

I guess I need to grow a set and confront this doctor but he just makes me so uncomfortable, I haven’t been able to do it.  So instead I just put up with it and start hating myself.

Ugh.  If it wasn’t a weekend, I would call out tonight.

I guess it is time to really start looking for a different position.  My 6 month suspension is up this month, I’ll have to look when and I’ll have to see what other department is hiring (probably the only thing I could go to now is either IMC or the ER).

NO ONE deserves to be treated how I was last night, least of all the person who is trying to take care of the patients…

Only one more day on…12 more hours of my life.  Believe me, I will avoid calling that doctor at all costs and that is NOT the attitude you want your nurse to have.

Okay, I have to snap out of this…

Maybe tonight will be better…it couldn’t be much worse.

Not too bad

Saturday, March 2, 2013

First night on…not too bad!

7 pm to 11 pm — one patient

11 pm to 3 am — two patients

3 am to 7 am — one patient

No one passed away!  We had a nurse leave at 11 so I picked up her one patient and then another nurse come in at 3 and I gave up a patient!

Just a steady night, just the way I like them…one more to go.
