Thanks, littlestream! Things got super bad last weekend when it
so happened that the 'bad' folks were all with me on that one
fateful shift. So, guess what? I had a hellish shift where they
really sabo'd me bad. 
But I'm proud of
myself, that I stood my ground nevertheless, and that when I was
approached by the Nurse Clinician in charge, I was objective in my
account of what really conspired.
In short, I did everything I felt was right at that point in time,
and I did nothing against my conscience. I also stood my ground,
despite mounting pressure to succumb to directive from a
less-than-discerning leader that day. If I had done what was
willed, I would have been in deeper trouble because I would have
compromised my patient care. I'm proud that even when surrounded by
seniors who weren't helpful and worse, had bad intentions in mind
and resorted to bullying antics, I stood firm and held on to what I
believed was intrinsically right.
In my opinion, I was the assertive rabbit surrounded by a pack of
wolves that day, and, I survived!! 
Got battlescars ... but 'tis ok... it
has built up my spirit!
