Nursing is all shift work so it's the same problem everywhere unless you score a good rosterer or the roster gods love you. I don't have the experience or the current capacity to go work in the community or to take on roles like unit manager to enable me to do Monday-Friday early shifts. Mostly I left due to my own anger & confusion with my life, I ran away from any responsibility. I know how to do this job & I know the people, I'm not sure I could cope with the stress of going & starting a new job all over again. This is a pattern of mine. I ran away from the state & my first nursing job of 3 years, around a year ago now. Getting a new job most definatly didn't help.
