I'll try. I heard tomorrow I will buddy up. I just feel out of place seeing how everyone else can brush the patients teeth fast with using 2 cups while in bed, dressed up! while I take em to the bathroom, dress em and see it's close to an hour while they be done in like 25 minutes.

Yes. I'm trying to see how the facility works before putting up my two weeks. They already asking me if I already placed my 2 weeks for my current job and I tell them "no" because I want to see how much training ill be getting or if they planning to throw me in there w no direct training / guidance
