I'm a RN (registered nurse), my hospital offered me to to become a Wound Care Nurse. They would cover 80% of the cost, so I'd end paying 20% of it.

Why scared you ask?

I've worked at several units at my hospital and I invariably met a majority of childish coworkers and a minority of the good ones, a minority from whom I'd always learn something, but most were and are just immature.

Immature behaviors include caring more about going smoking together and talking like teenagers about who dated who or whose ex is coming momentarily to work at the unit, yelling like they were in a bar, promising the manager when I first come to the unit to show me around and to actually teach me something during my training to do a complete 180 when the manager leaves, ignoring me, being passive aggressive, talking about nothing job related, while ignoring calling patients, or being outright hostile when I ask who is going to take care of what patients so I can organize my shift and start to work. Usually, if you work in a unit with those characters and you are the responsible one, you end up doing your job AND theirs, but I don't see a dime more.

Complaining to management didn't change anything. They usually side with the majority, because it's easier for them.

What I fear is having to work with any of these characters during my certification because I don't trust them and I don't want to be treated unfairly (getting a lower score) just because the person who examines me has beef with me.

For this to work I need people, teachers and mentors who take it as seriously as I do. I've already quit several units because this wasn't the case.
