I was at weight watchers last night when I overheard a person talking about how she is a nurse. I asked her what kind of nurse she was and how long she had been working. She said that she was a nursing supervisor and had been working for over 30 years. I told her that I was finishing up my first degree and trying to get into nursing school. Unfortunately, all she could do was snap at me the answers and then abruptly turn her back to me. She didn't say another word. All I could think was, I sure hope she doesn't have to work with patients much. I mean, it wouldn't be good for a sick person to get that kind of attitude. I guess I just don't understand why someone who has been a nurse for so long and was even talking about the nursing shortage would be so rude to someone who was eager to join the same profession.
