My job.....when I think of it ..it makes me cringe...I am a nurse. I thought after I graduated college I would at least get "SOME" respect. Boy was I wrong. I have went to work at a doctors office. Thought that would be easy...THINK AGAIN....My office is kinda like an urgent care center even though its a regular doctors office environment. My doctor has a main office and a satellite office. I work out of the satellite office. He comes three times a week after he sees his other patients. I end up staying there until 9 and sometimes later on those nights. I am a single mom. I am basically all alone with my child. I have some help but not much. This office is SO chaotic its crazy. I am the nurse, the lab girl, file clerk, insurance, referral person etc etc etc. I am so bombarded with work its not even funny. I am already on burnout and its only my 7 th week on this job. I left a job to come to this one. If I ever ask for help the answer is bluntly NO...what do I do.

Keep looking. Network with other doctors and care centers. Stay aware of the job opportunities and apply for them. Be clear on what you're looking for when you apply for the job.

Always be professional, your next patient could be your next potential boss. Don't gripe about your job, if people ask, talk about changes you would like to see in a professional manner. Be as positive as you can be. If you have the time to help others, do it. If not, tell them you can't and move on.

It's not uncommon for people to get a small string of jobs that don't fit. Keep looking until the right one shows up.

Get another job. You are worth more than this. You are a dependable person and being taken advantage of. You need a schedule you can work and live with. Your child is really being neglected to some extent by his mother. I know you are doing the best you can. But sometimes that's not enough. Get a job in a large hospital. You will at least have the option to work over if you choose. There seem to be a shortage of nurses every where. A nurses skills should only be used in the capacity of nursing. Of course you will work hard. But you will have assigned duties.. Try to avoid the smaller offices and hospitals. Good Luck.
