This paper presents the daily life of workers at the emergency room of University Hospital Antonio Pedro, Niterói/RJ, highlighting their subjective experiences in a precarious context. The analysis of experiences working device was built by the Community Extended Search including nurses and social service as subjects of knowledge production. The research focused on the relationships established in the collective team and the relationship of workers with their work. We observed a major difficulty in building an environment conducive to experiences of pleasure and professional achievement in the light of existing policy to dismantle the industry, the temporary hires much of the staff and the environment of precarious work, limiting the collective organization and development of the craft. Although strategies of job collective construction and of coping with unfavorable conditions at work have been identified, including dealing with suffering, such difficulties were heading psychological distress at work for a pathogenic size.
