the bad side listed on the experience page

I am thankful for having a job but lately i have the tendency to slack off.Yes,the feeling of "pagod na ako."I  never thought to be this tough in reality.But I still can manage naman, I wouldn't survive for 7 months if i can't.But it really doesn't worth  all those sleepless nights i spent during college days.(common topic we have with my colleagues.)And besides I have bunch of reasons for quitting.But I still find reasons for not giving up! :))

* It's definitely hard to please demanding patients/patients who-know-it all(even if how good you are in phlebotomy!)Even the best and the greatest pros were once an amateur too.(Despite those nasty experiences i had ,its great when your patients appreciate and thank you(one of the most rewarding !)Feeling ko nga mas gumagaling ako in every appreciation!:D

*The no-to error working environment.Yes I understand, that every result I signed and released matters.Life is at stake.Even periods,numbers and typographical errors MUST be avoided.A detailed accurate precise lab results at the end of your shift.(i should have take it as a learning ground though,that's the risky part of my chosen profession.. but see?im still imperfect and just-trying-to-be -perfect!)

*Veinless patients.These would be the most challenging part of my job.I remember my interview during the appraisal period when our chief medtech asked me if skill is knowledge-wise or experience-wise...i wittily answered EXPERIENCE-WISE.:)) Honestly I received comments like"ansakit mong tumusok,walang bang mas magaling dyan,ayoko ng baguhan,at ilang beses ko ng sinabing AYOKO NA." On the other hand I also received such thing as "magaling ka talga,Buti ka pa hindi masakit,galing talaga ni mam karissa, and I even experience the patient requested na ako ang tutusok sakanya..:)) I may fail on some days but i still conquer those bad days.:))

*Asal-talangka people around.You can't just erase this fact.every working environment,there will always bida and contrabidas too.If you can't change facts ,accept them..Trust a few.:D

*Careless nurses.:D(i won't explain further!i have lots of nurse friends!)

* NAPAKANAKAKAPAGOD na work.Not just the body but mostly brain-drained!My outlook on this change when one night as i took taxi on my way home,i was complaining for my 16hours duty and will get up 4 am for my 6am duty.The taxi driver humbly said,"Ako nga 24 hours na magpapaikot ikot na hindi alam kung may pasahero ba."From then,I  tried to look outside the box. And  I started to appreciate what i have!

 I want to end this with a quote from my favorite author:

: "FINISH EACH DAY AND BE DONE WITH IT. YOU HAVE DONE WHAT YOU COULD; SOME BLUNDERS AND ABSURDITIES HAVE CREPT IN; FORGET THEM AS SOON AS YOU CAN. TOMORROW IS A NEW DAY; YOU SHALL BEGIN IT SERENELY AND WITH TOO HIGH A SPIRIT TO BE ENCUMBERED WITH YOUR OLD NONSENSE." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
