Personal Narrative: My Interview With A PCU Nurse

It was a crazy day. All meetings for that day were cancelled. Therefore, my preceptor and I stayed in the unit. There were two main issues that need to be solved. The first one was solving an issue for a PCU nurse regarding accepted a new work without giving two weeks notice. She has made an interview for a job from one month ago, but she forgot to tell the manager about it and forget that she has did the interviewed. So, when she received a call from the new job caller that she got the job, she has unaware what this person was talking about!
