I have shadowed people quite a bit (I’m a new grad). I watched so intently and I can see how I should be able to theoretically do it, but just can’t put it into practice. I’ve practically surgically analyzed every action..every word..every progress note. [although I would make my preceptors run late too.. infectious!] so very infuriating!!!
you are right that this workplace would work me until I drop if I let them (non-profit cash strapped organization… (I would never let a greedy corporation do this to me!!!). Part of my problem is time management, but there is also a moral component to this. This is health care so I have this opportunity to make these important impacts on people’s lives. Certainly worth 11 hour days to give it my all and get paid for 8. However, the getting paid for 6 and working 11 really sucks! I’m cheap labor, but I take up office space which could be used for someone more productive. (I work part-time and do part-time school). I always tell people more than I should and intend so I admitted the 6hr in 11hr to one of my big bosses (why???????? >_<). Face was hard to read… puzzlement.. ie. what is her problem?
I have been telling some friends about my ADHD experiment. It has been a really really uncomfortable subject, actually. I think I will ask people to observe the changes in me. this is a good idea.
