What were your expectations for the job and to what extent were they met?

Question

had little knowledge of what to expect and high hopes for future advancement. Everything has worked out so far

Answer 1

To be honest, i always thought nursing was straight up looking after people. I didnt have any expectations. I knew it would involve long hours for unfair money, shift work, a lot of night shifts, and on your feet most of the time. I didnt expect the hassle, red tape and stupid rules involved too. Majority of the time its ok, and you get on with the job in hand. Looking after patients, and making sure their every need, within reason, is met. But every so often i wish i'd stayed in admin..
