  For my anecdotal story, I’ve never been treated worse than when I was doing IT for a hospital and working around nurses. God it felt like I was in a mean girls movie or some campy coming of age story about bullying.

    I don’t think hospitals do count, being burned out could be an official requirement for the job and you wouldn’t notice a difference.

      Being burned out doesn’t mean being catty, intentionally spreading false rumors, forming impenetrable cliques, and just being rude and talking behind each others backs.

      I get it, nurses are over worked and under paid. But so are a ton of other professions and they dont have this same problem.

        Eh, being burned out means exactly (most of) that. Especially being rude is a huge sign of being burned out, because you just can’t muster the energy to be positive, because everything about your work pisses you off, including your coworkers, customers, bosses and the work itself.
