Nurses share their stories of mistreatment with me because I've spent the last few years in my doctoral program studying workplace mistreatment among nurses and the contrasting concept of "Caring" (as opposed to lowercase "caring"). According to many I've spoken to, it comes from all angles, from experienced nurses to novices and from young nurses to older ones. I have friends who are faculty who are pressured into giving good grades and curving tests because the students will complain to admin if they're not getting As in class. I'm wondering if this is just a part of the overall culture of rudeness and entitlement and protecting one's piece of the pie. It's a bully's world and the rest of us are just living in it.
