Just got my dream job because I’m PETTY
TLDR; I’m going to be a flight nurse!
I previously made a post about passing my CCRN because I’m petty and wanted my name on that shiny plaque before I left my toxic work place.
Well I stuck around a little longer and also passed my C-ELBW! I was secretly holding out hope that this work place would start treating me better and giving me more acuity because of my newly passed certificates! No such luck. I worked there 9 months and they refused to let me take care of extremely low birth weight infants, or attend deliveries, or take care of anything but chronic kids because I hadn’t taken their education courses that they still weren’t offering! And I also don’t kiss booty hole.
This hospital is the only children’s hospital in the area and I really didn’t want to leave NICU all together. So I took a chance and applied to the pediatric/neonatal transport team and got the job! I will now be training and practicing my intubation skills in the same unit that wouldn’t let me touch anything acute.
I start next week and I’m thrilled! Don’t let mean nurses dictate your future. You are a good nurse!
