This is just me venting about my mother!!! She has been a nurse for over 30 years and most of it a contract nurse. Lately she has been taking these contracts (that in the agreement either can discontinue at any time) and she works them for a week or two and then quits!! I think it is very unprofessional of her, but her being my mother I can't really tell her that or she will freak out on me! She always has a new excuse too. Its either the weather was too hot or cold, the air was too thin there, the traffic was too bad, and lately she has a problem with the computer charting! She is also a compulsive spender and has no sort of retirement saved up. I don't foresee her working too much longer but I don't know what she is going to do because I am in no position to support her. I feel that it is of her own making that she has no money saved up. I can't wait til I am a nurse...
