There’s the romanticism of nursing and the reality of nursing.

I’ve been a Physical Therapist for 33 years. The discipline has deteriorated so much the last 10 years. It now cost $250,000 to get a doctorate in physical therapy. These kids will never pay off these loans, buy a home, and pay for 2 children to go to college. FYI both my kids (28 and 30) became engineers, had children and bought a home.

Honestly, nursing fucking blows. However. I work 12 days a month. I get paid a pretty decent wage, but yeah it’s all bullshit. I’m over the whole compassion bs, it’s a fucking job just like any other.

Nurses get treated badly because it’s majority women. We deserve to be paid more for the amount of knowledge we’re required to have, the hard work, and the crazy amount of mess we’re expected to put up with.

Every career path is difficult. Why is nursing supposed to be an exception

Spitting straight facts … when I started nursing I struggled because I felt like I lost myself .. but I realized at the end of the day it IS just a job!!!

Honestly, I think people need to know the reality. It isn’t like on TV, it isn’t like in the books, it’s real life. Nothing could ever truly prepare you, but we owe it to the new generation to show them the best we can.

I also think nurses appreciate comedy that also low key reveals how much 🐂 💩 they deal with. It would be hella validating.

You definitely need a good work/life balance or you will burn out.

I’ve been a nurse less than two years. In March I got a TBI from a patient. While processing for a new job in July I found out I have latent tuberculosis. Nursing is a hellscape.

The problem is they talk about money and romanticize nursing without talking about any of the actual job. Plus depending on where you live—money sucks.

I was a nurse for 40 years and loved it til I didn’t!! I don’t think I would do it again with all the physical damage I’ve acquired. Mentally very hard as well.

Nursing is the greatest profession. I’ve never regretted my decision to be a nurse. I hope others have the same experience.

These new grad nurses today go into nursing thinking that it’s all unicorns, rainbows and figs…. That is NOT what nursing is.
