there was a chance that i might have moved to the day shift (as a surgery tech) since they were looking for a 4th tech and would train for the position. unfortunately, the head tech gave 2 weeks notice the same week i said yes to taking the position and now they need someone already trained so the offer was put on hold... (sucks for me) but i understand.
so, i'm still the inpatient nurse caring for the least critical cases in the hospital. i'm learning alot and am a little surprised at how much information i've retained re: dosage and calculations. my math isn't half bad!
i will say that the hospital is a state of the art facility with good doctors and excellent techs, it still bothers me that it's so expensive that some patients are euthanized due to client $$$ problems. it sucks. fixable problems that are too damned expensive to treat.
i do the best i can. i do the best i can. i can only do the best i can.

it's almost 2pm and i'll have to begin getting ready for work by 4pm. i've been up since 10am due to the upstairs noise. they don't realize that i'll have to be up until tomorrow when i get out of work at 7am and get home by 8:30-9am.
they don't realize that, even though they know i work overnights. either they don't realize that, or don't care. regardless, i need to find somewhere with no children living below or above me.
it's a shame. i love the neighborhood. i like the apartment even though it's a little small and has basically no storage space.
