Tomorrow I start my first real job

Loads of people have asked if I’m nervous or not, and no not really, I have spent the past three years nursing, okay, now I am going to be accountable for my own actions, I’ve got no-one to fall back on if I screw up. But that isn’t even true, if I’m not sure of something I know the team I’m working with will help me make decisions. Even after doing this job for forty years I’ll be relying on a team to help me make the right choice, that something that I think will help me tomorrow.

But I know part of the team, I’ve worked with them for eight weeks previously, and then worked with them in other stages of my learning whilst with other teams, so know me, and I feel I’ll be able to become part of their team easily

I feel like I’m ready to be a nurse, or at least start taking on my responsibility. And besides, you just know that half of what I do tomorrow is going to be getting taken out of the team to talk about new job-ish stuff, booking holidays and working out my preceptorship/supervision.

All I can do now is make sure I’ve got everything I need packed up so I’ve got less to do in the morning.

The one thing I’m scared about is I need to be there for 7 am… Fook if I sleep in xD
