She wasn't being rude or anything but it made me feel so horrible and upset. I have barely had any interactions with her. I spent the rest of the day feeling depressed and worried. Now I am really worried that I will not be able to find a job after placement is finished. I have tried to make an effort to get a job but I feel like I will never get one. It really hurts to know that I have tried but still am not good enough.

That's interesting. I have a sister who is an LPN and another who is a CNA. One of their biggest pet peeves? People who spend too much time socializing instead of doing their job.
I'm not big into socialization myself, so I can understand where you are coming from.
