Nah , I think this person made up the story . <| sep |> I truly think that it doesn ' t matter where you work , EVERY new nurse feels this way ! !!!!! We were all overwhelmed . We all cried . A great preceptor remembers those feelings and is a great help to a new nurse , but we aren ' t all great preceptors . I know I suck at it and I tend to offer a lot of criticismI mean nothing by it ! !! I ' m just trying to show better ways of doing things that will save time and be more efficient . I know it doesn ' t always come off that way though . I wish you were having a better experience , but I also hope you can stick it out . Don ' t expect people to be overly kind and welcoming . I think we are all used to seeing new nurses be oriented , become independent , and leave for a new job 612 months later so we stop being so welcoming of new friends just to see them leave .
