Do Nurses/Rn's have big egos?

All I hear is how horrible Rn's treat cna's or anyone working under them and I don't get it, just because you have a degree and your paycheck is higher does not give anyone a reason to disrespect someone. Right now I want to become a cna just to get some experience and I'm really not looking forward to a nurse who will disrespect me you know I will kick *** if I have to. So are there any cna's or rn's out there with some experience with big ego's or will I be fine?.

You know honey,no matter what you do...do it for yourself. Make sure this is what you want. If it is..nothing and nobody can get in your way. There are bad apples in every bunch, so be it. YOU just keep your thoughts on the word"ACCOMPLISHMENT"..you ignore the ugly stuff. You are going to be there to learn,and to meet your special goal.
Do not take the gruffness from others to heart. Just don't you be the big bully later when you reach your goal. You go girl.!
Thumbs up to you. May God Bless.

You get what you give.

The fact you're going to kick *** tells me you're ready for a fight.

Go look in the mirror.

I would not want to "Exchange Worthless Gifts" with your ego.

Fire your ego!!!!!

It will be the absolute best thing you have ever done in your life.

Here's a great place to start

I posted this question a while back http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;... it should give you a good idea of how some CNAs feel.

I have worked with LPN/RNs with egos. It may become a problem if you become a CNA. If it is, go over their heads and try to get it resolved.

It shouldn't keep you from becoming a CNA though. I'm sure there are RNs that feel that the Doctors disrespect them. I'm sure they tolerate it more becuase they are making such good money. You will also come across people that are disrespectful in any feild.

Here are some CNA forums:

I am a CNA and yes there are some nurses that do have BIG egos. Most of the time I just ignore them but it does get to ya sometimes too. If you do do CNA work you will figure out quickly who those nurses are and if you like your job well enough, it wont bother you as much.

i am an RN in the ICU and i think that CNA's do so much for us and i appreciate everything you guys do, we need you too!
