Was working 7 in a row optional? Sometimes a good way to prove yourself is to take regular days off. Your absence might make them realize you’re good to have around. Of course, if there are lots of people working there they may not notice you’re gone!
Unfortunately not entirely optional - there are quite a few sick colleagues on that station atm and I was available as the “young, fresh new guy”. My duties today were mostly providing basic care and measuring blood pressure, blood oxygen levels and body temperature as well as asking about pain levels on the numeric rating scale (NRS) and taking care of the 3 infectious patients (COVID, Flu and MRSA).
There are indeed lots of people working there, mostly RNs and only a few assistants or trainees. Today my team was entirely different from yesterday. It was me and two older female nurses and a young trainee in her first year. I get what you mean though, fortunately I have two days off immediately after my shift tomorrow and only work on 3 days the following week. 👍🏻
