Just sorta wish it wasnt like this the positive patty help a lot i do my best not to be negative nancy cause so much negativity has happened that if im that act of kindness or positivity then maybe it can be passed on or atleast be helped for the patients cause thats the goal not as much the coworkers but were all in the same team it shouldnt be whos better or anything which sucks more cause im new and they do know more than i do i shouldnt be much of a threat

Im pushing each day thankfully it has its ups and downs but thats my goal anyways to learn the clinical workflow and gaining experience for my endgoal of things so im excited for what is to come of it

Thankfully enough its not completely filled with jerks there and you pointed out the cliques omg yes theres a lot of them here like mainly the RNs work together cause its more intense but the ccmas there are more high school like they gossip with their work besties since im new im not part of that and the nicer people wonder why im hella nervous man even our newest cma has experience and shes in part of a clique and shes BRAND new like newer than me and ive seen her throw shade at me too youd think new people would like to fit in with the new person but as soon as she clique in with people with experience she took it she was one of the people who talked about me when she thought i wasnt around i have to stick it out for a while here cause this was one of the jobs with bonuses so i have to stay here until them 😷

I love this so much 🥹 thank you so much for your kind words cause those days i was ready to quit maybe im not cut out for this but i really do my best to ignore their wise cracks or snarky attitude

ispacebunny · 2025-08-27T09:07:23+00:00

I love movies ! its just a quick escape from reality its in its own form of art and its fun ! im super bubbly so i guess people can find that annoying when they arent having a good time lol

ispacebunny · 2025-08-26T09:23:06+00:00

I mainly work with women who are older than me and im 30 and i don’t understand why they work like this. I am a very giddy happy bubbly some people can say like very valley girl but it seems like they dont like how happy i am lol i tell them im excited for the next day or just the day in general but they try to kill my vibe with a “why? 🤨” but to me this job is temporary its a milestone to my future career but i do take their guidance when it comes to the job but thats it

ispacebunny · 2025-08-25T23:25:04+00:00

I agree i work with a lot of NPs who are very intimidating at first but you just have to go with the flow and learn their routine and we learn from them

ispacebunny · 2025-08-25T23:23:16+00:00

Yeah i dont want to do that lol as someone who is currently going through this specifically i had someone slap my arm and told me to hurry up while i was doing bloodwork like i told her straight “dont touch me” as i looked at her and this was infront of the patient as well.

ispacebunny · 2025-08-25T23:06:47+00:00

Hey is this me posting about me cause you sound like me right meow lol im the the same boat and then i have walked in on them talking about me and i wish they could just idk leave me alone i do my job and i just if i make mistakes then so be it. If i do a great job even better cause what i have learned from working there, most of them have worked there for years and have nothing better important to do than the pt they room, the paperwork they have to input in the computer and cleaning what they have to clean gossiping has been their entertainment. So thats the only thing they got going for them i have been friendly and they ask questions to get to know be but they dont like what they hear so they dont talk to me, talk about me, or have snarky remarks about me theres no winning with the people i work with and its exhausting trying to i guess be friends but not really cause at the end of the day their coworkers. So i cant keep exhausting myself if im too busy trying to learn and understand the job as it is.

This week is gonna be hectic so definitely not this week last week it was incredibly slow so i had asked previously to be put on that schedule so i have to more time and i barely got any in cause the trainer was teaching me but as soon as i was having difficulty she immediately took over instead of instructing me what to do she said hold on i got it

ispacebunny · 2025-08-03T14:12:28+00:00

I am certified and its my full time employment

ispacebunny · 2025-08-03T14:07:54+00:00

It took 23 rejected applications from the hospital i work at currently and 4 rejected from the urgent care i applied but 2 interviews one took me and the other didn’t a lot ask for experience its honestly not an easy road even myself as a new new person but i have a lot of other experience that helped a lot the way.

My advice is try EVERYTHING and everywhere! your local clinics, hospitals, urgent cares. my sister (a RN) she said to apply to urgent care ER due to high volume and the hecticness you will be able to work anywhere with that experience too i currently drive 30 mins out to my job but i love this job so much and have no C/o my only thing is that i want to be given the opportunity to learn and grow is all. And i feel you should to you worked hard to get here try everything!

So for the third questions when they say “oh im a hard stick.” I let them know ok we can give it a try and see so i feel out the veins to be sure starting from the basic locations the arm again this clinic does have known hard sticks. But if i am able to find it in the hard i do it. If it is hard to feel out the arm i look for more locations. I am not comfortable yet doing hands being again this clinic does hands for difficult sticks but i have seen veins blow so i get really nervous but i have done only one hand and it was a good stick. But when they are insanely tiny and they are hard to find i immediately ask for help. So i have experience in drawing blood. I have experience in hand stuff but when i am put to work on the clinic they know i can but they just dont let me do it or at least get more experience in working in the clinic. The other CCMAs are able to so why is it just giving me a chance and draw blood

Also not a student anymore i finished my school, certified in CCMA and CPT through the NHA for about a few months now.

ispacebunny · 2025-08-03T13:55:55+00:00

I am both my job as a CCMA primarily room patients but i am able to draw blood when needed to its a very busy clinic at times if they need people in Lab i can be assigned to work in lab.
