  10. What about teaching? Ever give it any thought?
  11. You poor thing! I cried reading this, because I know what you mean. I am a new grad, but I have been a CNA for 10 years. I have worked so hard, harder than the other CNA's and nurses I worked with, to be the best. I couldn't leave the floor in the ki...
