I am not in a comfortable situation in mine. It is a bit toxic tbh. The rest of it seems normal - so many meetings, everyone fumbling around trying to meet the goals that shift around. I do like the parts where I get to write code though:-).

Nobody enjoys 100% of every day and every activity. But do you enjoy your job… mostly?

    Interesting, I’ve heard it’s generally the opposite, where pay and hours are terrible if you’re employed directly by a hospital. Traveling nurses are supposed to get much better pay and hours. Don’t have direct experience with that though. Maybe it’s because you’ve specialized as a nurse anesthetist?

      Definitely. Nurse anesthetists are rarely employed by the hospital. We almost always work for an anesthesia group as a W2 or 1099. Pay can be better for some traveling gigs though. It’s a little different than RN contracts and pay though.
