Work Work Work

So I got my first job as a nurse and super excited. I feel well prepared for my job and use most of the information I learned in school. I am getting really good at learning new medication, what they do and how they look. BUT there are some things that I HATE!! this is the part where i vent..
1. I love the ER. I like fixing the patient and moving on. I am not really into the long lasting relationship part of nursing!! To bad I don't work in the ER yet.
2. I work on weekends! I am realizing that I can never take a weekend VACA again! Ha
3. My schedule is not a 9 to 5 job. I have to come in when they ask or need me too.. this makes it hard to schedule my days and make plans... This is my number one thing I hate about work!
4. Passing medications ALL DAY LONG is not that fun. I like the fast pace of a hospital.
5. I am super nervous about making a mistake. I try to be a perfectionist at work
6. My feet KILL by the end of 16 hours.
7. I hate the Hour drive!
8. This is the first time in my married life that I thought about getting pregnant.... If i get pregnant then I can quit work:) Then I realized I am crazy and not ready for children.
9. I LOVE the money.. it makes it all worth it.

As I was writing this I started to feel like I sound ungrateful for my job and a brat. I am so grateful that I found a job in this economy, especially being a new grad. I am grateful for the experience I am receiving and the friendships I am making. This is my first REAL job and I think I am very overwhelmed. I came home after the first day of real work and cried all night! But I know with practice and time I will be a great nurse!
