If I didn't have to work...what would I do!?!?

Published

Hi all - I read on here how some of you love your job and some of you are very burnt out. This question came to my mind and I was curious what you would all do.

If, for whatever reason, you had the option of not working at all would you still be a nurse? Or, would you just work very reduced hours to stay in the field because it means so much to you and is fulfilling in your life?

I would continue to work but cut back hours. I am still new and want to learn more. I would go back to school and learn different things. Anything that seems interesting. Ilove real estate and would probably like to sell houses also. Or at least get my real estate license.

I am still planning on get my BSN but afterwards will get my real estate license when my kids get older.

I would work just enough to keep up my license so I could do volunteer stuff at free clinics and such. Maybe get a Masters part time.

I would own a quaint little bookstore with a little coffee shop in it. And maybe give free bp screenings!!

I would train rescue dogs, be a pastry chef or an archeologist. I'd take classes forever in whatever interests me. I would let my grown children move in and live with me for the rest of my life.
