urghhhh...

Why can't people just compromise? Why can't people just ask? Why do people just make assumptions all the time? There's no point making assumptions because nothing will be solved. And even if it is, it will not favour both parties. Why do people just spend time complaining instead of finding ways to solve problems? Findings way to put words in a nicer way so that you can get what you want. Well, at least part of what you want. It's call compromising,. Geez!!!! Why are some people just so stubborn, not wanting to listen to options suggested by others and just come up with all the excuses in the world just to go against you.?Why do people work against each other instead of WITH each other? Why do people always take others for granted and not realizing it?

Seriously?? seriously!! Farrrrrrrrrrrrrr out!!!!

Just so annoyed right now with certain things. Just had to let it out so that I can cool off.

On a different note, well, maybe a lil bit related to the above....

A lot of people in this world really need people skills. But you won't learn it if you are stubborn and think you are doing nothing wrong and reluctant to learn. You won't learn if you think others are wrong and you are right. "If you want things to change, you must change first."

When I was at one of my placement, my supervisor gave me a really good advice. You see, sometimes I need help to stand my patient up because they are so unsteady on their feet. I need to assess their mobility and I'll need assistance. The best people to get help from are the nurses. But sometimes, the nurses can get really grumpy. This was how I do it?

"Hey [inserts nurse name here], can you please give me hand when are you free to get Mr.X up? I just want to see how he is on his feet and then take him for a short walk." Polite much? Doesn't sound too bad right?

Apparently no.... they go around complaining saying I demand too much. I was really confused.

This is how it should be done....

"Hey [inserts nurse name here], let me give you a hand when you need to get Mr.X to the shower. I will help you to get him out of his bed and walk him to the shower."

And they are so smiley to me after that :) People skills I tell you, people skills.
