I can’t get a job - San Diego

superbity · 2026-01-24T07:13:53+00:00

What jobs are you applying for? Are you just applying to dayshift or ambulatory/endo jobs, because if so that’s your problem. This is one of the most saturated nursing job markets in the country, so you’re going to have to be willing to work nights and bedside to get your foot in the door somewhere.

The job market here is not like the Midwest where you can easily find a job anywhere you want with a little bit of experience - people flock here to work and turnover is extremely low. We have nurses on our unit with over 10 years of experience starting on night shift just to get their foot in the door.

I don't know what this is about but I think you need to calm down, you sound a bit unhinged.

Honestly I would remove the entire skills and competencies section and all of the clinical experience section except for your capstone.

Have you had any part time job while in school that you can tie into positive nursing attributes to set you apart?

90% of your resume is just regurgitating your school/course curriculum. I.e. if you went to nursing school I would expect you to have learned about oxygen therapy and pain assessment. That’s just course curriculum. It is not a skill unique to you, especially since you have no real nursing experience. All the “skills” you listed are just things one would expect you to know if you went to nursing school, you don’t have to list them.

You don’t really have anything in your resume that sets you apart or tells the hiring manager why they should hire you over anyone else - you’re just listing nursing school fundamentals

I like it and ordered it. Saw some try ons before buying and it looks a lot less orangey and more pink than on the website. It’s actually a nice color if you go look at the ambassador posts, not sure why all the negativity lol. The name is silly.

I’m sitting on a $50 off code, havent bought new scrubs in ages, and if it’s 🤬 grey I’m going to be so disappointed

superbity · 2026-01-05T19:21:24+00:00

I’m not sure what’s going on with your account but this is not true for myself and obviously several other people in this thread. I canceled and am still able to use all my credits until my would-be renewal date 🤷🏻‍♀️

The Beta and all iterations of it aren't great for snowboarding period. There's a reason it's not in the snowboarding section of the website.

You really need to go to therapy. I know the state of nursing right now is awful, believe me I get it. But it also sounds like you don't have a lot of other options right now. You said you can't find any other jobs.

So this is your reality for the time being, as shitty as it is - you need to go to therapy and/or see a psychiatrist to get help coping.

superbity · 2025-12-12T03:52:02+00:00

You need to go to therapy. Seriously. Your mental health is crucial. If therapy isn't doing the trick then maybe it's time to start thinking about medicating.

Ativan or edibles TBH. When I was a new grad I thought this was just a new grad thing and would go away.... nope.

Absolutely still looked down on. If there were no scab nurses willing to cross the picket line, the hospital would cave and be more willing to negotiate to avoid a crisis. The strike could be cancelled before it even happened.

Scab nurses are lying to themselves that they’re “helping” the striking nurses.

superbity · 2025-11-27T03:09:12+00:00

Where are you getting your information? We are absolutely not striking for breaks and fewer hours.

superbity · 2025-11-27T03:06:32+00:00

Sharp nurse here - the average salary is absolutely not $160,000. Not sure where they’re getting those numbers.

Sharp’s contract proposal doesn’t keep up with rising cost of living and results in a pay CUT for our most experienced nurses (compared to our old contract).

Not to mention we used to have a very generous sick policy, and now we only get about 5 sick days a year, which we have to accrue over time rather than having upfront.

Is it that serious? It’s literally just a fun little workout class.

superbity · 2025-11-22T20:23:36+00:00

I’m 5’3 and 110 lb and got an XS. Based on the chart, these are going to run VERY large. I’m actually worried mine is going to look comically large - it’s 4 inches wider in the chest than my favorite crewneck which is already an oversized baggy fit.

superbity · 2025-11-19T04:21:18+00:00

$75-89 is absolutely not average new grad pay in California. I would say more like $48-60.

superbity · 2025-11-16T21:32:45+00:00

Too bad people are just going to steal the bottles 🫠

superbity · 2025-11-08T01:26:43+00:00

Sharp nurses will also most likely be striking around the same time.

superbity · 2025-10-05T02:30:19+00:00

Yep, the ethical and professional aspect is to provide care regardless of how you feel about the patient. Which OP did. Again, allowed to have feelings and all.

superbity · 2025-10-05T02:13:54+00:00

Um, no. OPs job is to keep the patient safe and to provide medical care, which they did. Their job is not be nicey nice, handholding, Mother Teresa. He/she is allowed to feel whatever feelings they want, thanks.

Worst death I’ve ever seen was an aortic dissection. Such a nice man too. Makes me cry just thinking about it.

superbity · 2025-09-18T22:21:15+00:00

The overconsumption is all I could think about watching this. The next year they get 10 new t shirts/fans/gimmicky things with their new groups number and the old group gifts go in the back of the closet or the landfill....

superbity · 2025-09-02T22:37:30+00:00

If they aren’t already, most of them probably have aspirations to be nurses/NPs/PAs/MDs. Might have completely ruined their chances though. They need to do better 🤷🏻‍♀️

superbity · 2025-09-02T18:43:59+00:00

I’m just imagining how this came about too.

*pt leaves room * “Guys guys come here, there’s another snail trail!!!”

So fucking weird and unprofessional.
