The first thought that comes to my mind is sociopath. Just a thought, because of your inability to have empathy.

Sociopath? Seriously? It strikes me that you might be overreacting a tad.

Empathy's not all it's cracked up to be. There are lots and lots of moments in nursing when, although I don't feel the slightest bit empathetic toward my patients, I still have to put on a happy face and go in and take care of whatever their needs are. Just because you're not an overflowing well of compassion at all times doesn't mean you're a bad nurse.

Change your major to Healthcare Administration. No, and I mean NO! proximity to pts. and you get to make pie charts and line graphs all f'in day. Goals are set and you get to make rules up as you go along. You will stay clean and dry, keep lysol in your bottom drawer in case a c-differ walks by, though if you keep your office door closed you can avoid it all together. You can explain all these serious medical conditions to the foundation members who, if you spin it just right, can donate a new player piano for the lobby.

Seriously, I just had a shift from H E L L and the thought of a grown adult getting into a NP track and not knowing that their would be sick, needy people on road to his "goal" floors me. PAY YOUR DUES...............then go NP.

I promise to apologize for this post tomorrow, but the way I'm feeling right now it stands.

I would hate to have OP as an admin.
