      The confidence comes with experience. Trying failing and learning. It’s the same process with anything you do in life. I truly appreciate the love and acknowledgment, but seriously bro from my perspective it doesn’t even feel special just the natural order of things. It’s like a baby to walk or learning how to use his hands to eat after you practice so many times it’s natural. Nothing different about me or anybody else I just trained! I’m truly proud of you bro! Keep going! That’s ironic and dope you did Zimmer! Keep up the good work, my brother!

    Around 12:50, was the nurse being serious and passive aggressive about you picking up the trays to go and see the patient? She needs to have accountability too cause if she was really in a rush there were plenty of other surfaces where they could have opened more of the vendor sets to further expedite things on their end and not come at you. Great job with always just brushing it aside cause it’s not that deep and after working with different types of nurses for years as a traveler I’d imagine you’ve come to see it all . - Navy CST

    • @TheSurgicalGuru
      @TheSurgicalGuru Před 2 dny

      I can’t even completely understand what she said to me but you said it perfectly brother. Most of the times it’s friendly banter but even if it was serious I understand the pressure comes from anesthesia, doctors, and ultimately upper management to expedite the set up process and get things done as quickly as possible so we can do as many cases as we can throughout the day. We’re human and everyday won’t be perfect but in attempts to maintain my peace of mind I don’t take anything personally and approach work with an understanding perspective as opposed to feeling personally attacked. Also you put it perfectly bro when you deal with harsher personalities throughout your traveling it makes it much easier to deal with people in general. I truly appreciate your comment and service in the field my friend! God bless you forever on this journey of life.

Thank you for watching the post. I definitely understand bro. Please remember to always be patient with yourself. There’s a learning curve with everything as you know. You had a previous profession and you didn’t learn it overnight. It takes time. Even if people get frustrated don’t take it personal! Sometimes even remind them you’re trying your best and you’re there to help! Keep asking questions brother and practice makes perfect! Also just so you know 10 years later I STILL make mistakes, it’s all good brother. Just keep going. I’m glad the channel can help. I will upload an Urology set up and do a c-arm draping for a little refresher! May God always keep you encouraged! Peace out brother!

    How would you handle preceptors and doctors that don't want to teach or are unwilling to answer questions? In my clinicals I have encountered preceptors/doctors who do not want students and are very unwilling to help, almost into the realm of being hostile. I've asked questions and they simply ignore me, but then I've had great preceptors and doctors who talk through every step and I learn a great deal. Other students at other hospitals have actually had very hostile environments.
