Reassessing

Every day I read my "followed blogs" and I am instantly inspired to do the same. Only I find myself opening the post and just stare at the page because I feel like I have nothing to say. Well at least nothing that sounds like a complaint, worry, or anything that others want to hear about. However, everything is relative to someone in time. Reviewing my posts just after becoming an RN, I am amazed that at where I am in life. Nope I have not found a job yet and honestly I am so tired of hearing those not in my shoes to say "be flexible...take what you can get...stop being picky...they NEED nurses." The reality is that YES nurses are still in demand BUT not new grads with nothing but clinical experience that require mentoring. That cost money and time, all of which we KNOW hospitals don't do well with. I have applied to over 300 positions and not ONE interview or call back to date! I constantly edit my resume and get a little more desperate in my cover letter cry. I'm really trying to ENJOY this time I have off doing nothing but its really difficult when you have mouths to feed. Have I said all this before because I feel like a broken record...like its deja vu.
