Suffocated

In the first few days of life, i was so stressed up and tired with jobs, obligations and the worst part is the cooperations with the staff nurses.. In the first few days, i kept making mistakes. I was scolded no matter what i do.. And i got confuse between right and wrong.. A list of mistakes done... eg. filling up the wrong form, forget to sign, writing wrong thing at the wrong place, taking staff nurse trolley, forgot to clean up after use and the list goes on.. There were tonnes of mistakes that i did in one day and got scolded like hell.. i felt suffocated and started to wonder why i became an FOC punching bag ..haizz..
My goodness, why staff nurses can be so fierce.. i got so phobia to them. Am i too young ? Do i really do that much of mistakes? are there any considerations as i was still a newbees there? i knew that there wont be answers for these questions. I started to find a way to solve it, by learning things faster . But then, i notice that its not abt the mistakes that i did.. at times, i got scolded without reasons and being humiliated by them in front of the patients .I knew there was something wrong somewhere.Things didnt go well as i thought to be.With lots of question mark in mind, i consulted my family members. They taught me some management skills and also ways in handling crisis.. My collegues taught me to be more confident in making decisions and be strict at times so that i wont be bullied blindly.
With their help,i was able to go thru these obstacles without problems..

  1. all of us have to start off somewhere. i like that bicycle graphic u've put up on the right column of your blog. when we move off on the bike, we gather strength to get the bike move straight. getting the inertia to move off is always the toughest part. however,once it starts moving, then it's just about adjusting the balance to keep it going.

    i had alot of problems in the first 3-4months with the new job. but once we adapt and grow along, things gradually seem to get alot easier =) jia you!
