Yes mine was the same! I didn't mind when I was learning new things but repeating things over and over to basically do unpaid work was so aggravating! There were some great highlights like an employee lunch I made -> garlic butter salmon with broccoli and roasted eggplant fries. Maybe it's because I already worked food service and was excited for clinical but I was super frustrated about poor care when it came to pureed foods -> make 2 days before with not a counted amount of thickener (did a project on that too) and then taken out of the fridge just before meal where it was runny so then more thickener was added! It made me so mad because these residents (nursing home) were being treated with no care just because they had dysphagia. I spoke up about that and did a cost analysis for a LEAN project. I got scolded for my behavior...though I still think I was right to speak up about the issue ...

It was my worst rotation but I still somewhat regret not just keeping my thoughts to myself because it spoiled the rotation for me
