nyc apt hunting, quitting my first nursing job | vlog #7

[@svetlanalena3208]

I quit my my job as a registered nurse last year ago after almost 9 years in the field. It was not an easy decision, but life is too short to dread going to work everyday. No amount of m oney can b uy real happiness Lol but friends I'm not asking you to resign from your job or abandon your business but be wise

[@karenpierce8864]

I don’t like my job but I love what it provides for me and my family. This pandemic has people rethinking and working

[@theresamaddison1304]

You're right ma'am! Were you a bedside nurse and how did you plan yourself before quitting

[@svetlanalena3208]

@@theresamaddison1304 while I was still in service I planned towards early retirement, my first Income I do a normal 9-5, my second income I put it back to work to make more money because I'm not just after the money but the freedom to live on my terms Lol

[@gracedaniels6172]

@@svetlanalena3208 yeah and 9-5 cant give you the freedom you need. An extra income stream (passive Inc ome) is a great option keep it up

[@svetlanalena3208]

@@gracedaniels6172 yes I was able to make about 2/3k weekly as extra income from my ( REIT & s tocks) Investing trying so much to build more side hustles and extra income

How long you stay on your first job?

[@royjohnson9043]

that primary care job seems like a dream job hahaa

[@Anna-hs2ci]

Love it!!!!

[@aw8758]

I was surprised you didn’t do acute care np. Fnp.....is very tricky esp in today’s nursing world. Oncology sounds exciting and there’s constant learning! Happy for you!

[@EliseChen]

I know 🥲I didn't realize what I wanted to do back then, I just wanted one with the most flexibility! But hopefully with a subspecialty, it'll be okay! 😅 thank you so much 💕hope you're doing well!! 😁✨

[@HelenAlemu]

Love the honesty Elise! Good luck in the future girlie :)

[@fatimabarron5825]

Girl where are youuu! 😭 its been almost a year!!

[@theresac8116]

I completely relate to you.. I quit my first nursing job 5 months in because I was in a primary care setting as well and I dreaded my job so much. I'm applying for more acute inpatient positions. Primary setting and not having that nurse-patient relationship wasnt fun for me. I was so worried to feel like a "quitter" but I'm honestly so much happier outside of that primary care setting. Thank you for sharing that with us!

[@EliseChen]

Aww we’re the same!! Thank you for sharing your experience with me 💕 I hope you find a job you love soon!!

[@kjv3192]

I’m the opposite! I am in the ICU (4.5 months in and new nurse) and I want to quit and go into primary care! I don’t find I get nurse-patient relationship in my area because most of the time the patients are sedated and intubated. I dead my job each day too😂 Just funny how we are all meant for a certain area and are all different.

[@user-hc6ud9id5x]

Always love watching your videos!!

Best of luck with your apartment hunting and new job!

[@EliseChen]

[@xXxnicoleroxXx]

[@minjikim4308]

[@EliseChen]

[@Obekanobee]

Those apartments will be efficiencies here. Will run you about 500-800

[@Joo-co3hw]

Hey Elise! Good luck with your new job! I lover your honesty and the way you speak. I think you will make a really great nurse, you speak so calm. I know that you are studying at Columbia NP school, do they still let you work full time while in program? I asked you this on other video but just wanted to make sure you read one of my comments haha. Columbia NP school is my dream school, but the fact that they don't allow students to be in a full time job is discouraging me. Would you answer me when you have time? Thank you a lot! Good day!

[@EliseChen]

Hi hi! Yeah, Im currently in the Columbia fnp program and I work full time. It can be hard to balance both school and work but it’s definitely doable! Don’t let that discourage you, do apply!

[@Joo-co3hw]

Elise Chen Thanks😊😊 Hope you have a great weekend🥳
