6 across the board - I can tell they're trying, but I still wish I felt more valued in every way. I've asked for more money, and they say they can't pay more, but I just don't get it with how much executives make. They keep us small by underpaying us and making us feel dependent on them for our livelihoods. I'd love a job where I don't always feel like I'm trying to perform well for better treatment. Is it too much to want to be valued for exactly who I am?

Treated good, good support, but could always be compensated better. 7/10

I get paid very well for the amount of work I do. I might get a couple bad interactions a day but the majority are good. Hybrid work is amazing and my pay is pretty good considering my experience. Support is probably the weakest part. I have decent bosses but they don't really have the time to mentor me.

Any advice on how to tastefully tell your manager that you no longer want to be a charge nurse anymore? For us being in charge is having full assignment 3p-7p & being responsible for assigning pts , communicating w/ supervisor about various issues, making the assignment for next shift, and a mini report about each pt for the next charge. On the weekends, same responsibilities but 7a-7p. We don't get any additional pay for being in charge and I'm sick of the added responsibility and stress of it.

Just got let go and my manager said part of it was because I was looking for other jobs. I didn't look for other jobs at work, so I'm not sure how they could have known that unless a coworker snitched on me. Is it worth it to try and find out who or should I just leave it? Can't deny that I'm seriously pissed off about it.

There’s no reason you have to put up with a job you hate. I spent many years working in a toxic environment with a boss who gossiped and lead through fear. He wasn’t really much of a leader but basically a foreman. And he could make my existence miserable. I admit that it wasn’t easy to find another job but the bottom line is: trust your guts. If you feel something is wrong it’s because it probably is. Don’t second guess yourself. Look for options and and fight for your mental health.
