And Yes I am a **** poor speller but I am carring an A in nursing so I figure it just another trade off

I hear ya' buddy! I miss being on the job more than I miss having a body in one piece.

Good work on your success in school! I'm 52, but have still been able to maintain my #3 spot in a class of 125. I think that our attraction to this line of work is that it so closely resembles "hook'n and book'n"... a very real opportunity to help others, AND that occasional adrenalin rush to keep it interesting!

Re: Law enforcement to nursing

Well Im happy to see that there will be some of the boys in blue roaming the halls of a hospital with me! Its always good to have friendlies in a hostile environment (all of those women nurses. LOL). From what I have seen and heard so far it seems that the ER is the place for a retired flatfoot. The people you encounter there seem to be the same people you see on the streets usually not at thier best moments!!!!!
