so i had a job interview today. for a position that i heard of through a friend of a friend. anyway im a nurse and this job happens to be in a small operating room. anyway.. i tend to be a bit squeemish but i really want to over come that fear and have a great job.
so i go to the interview and its going good then he tells me hes going to suit me up and let me watch a proceedure! totally unexpected but decided to suck it up and go watch.
so i get suited up and go into the room meet everyone NOTHING EVEN HAPPEND YET and then here we go.. i get a ringing in my ears and i break out into the terrible sweat and i tell the guy i think im going to pass out.. so i have to go into another room they have to get me juice... mind you i didnt pass out but was on the verge.. i was SOOOO EMBARRASSED!!!! i started to cry but held it in. i just wanted to put a bag on my head and run out!!!!
he tried to make me feel better by saying this is why they do this on the interview to make sure that you can handle it. i then requested to go back in and watch the proceedure. so he said sure i went back in i was FINE!!!
i think it was the whole anticipation of the unknown. that made me totally psych myself out!
anyway... i didnt get the job yet i have to go back on monday and put in a half day of shadowing to make sure i have survive!
ill up date then but i was just so embarrassed.

Good luck Monday. Atleast you went back in and showed them you can do it. But you also don't want a job that you dread going to or can't handle. My girlfriend hates blood and took a job as a clerk in the ER. I said, 'what were you thinking' she sd she hides behind the desk but has been doing the job for a few years now and has adjusted.
