Wednesday's shift was a difficult one. I spent the day looking after two patients which then multiplied to four in the afternoon. I was wandering around after my mentor hoping that she would finally spend some time going over some medications work with me. They whole day went by and half an hour after my shift finished she decided to take me for some formal learning.
Needless to say I was not amused and told her that I was busy with something else and she could wait. Of course I got in trouble and reluctantly left my paperwork to one side.
You see, the most difficult thing about being a student nurse is that you are constantly told that you are a member of staff, supernumerary, but staff none the less. So naturally I put myself into a responsible position and make my own decisions. I just have a bad habit of not being very diplomatic when I'm in a terrible mood, which was why at the end of the day I had my bottom well and truly kicked for being stroppy.
I then had to wait forty minutes for the out of hours bus ride home which caused me to tear up on several occasions.
Wednesday was a bad day.
