If not nursing what other career would you have done?

Just for fun, if you were to choose a career other than nursing what would it be and why?

A LAWYER.. they call the shots.. and make the big bucks.. deciding our role.

Specializes in MDS/ UR.

Pharmacist. Hands down.

Specializes in NICU, ICU, PICU, Academia.

Med lab scientist.

Specializes in Med-Surg, NICU.

A billionaire heiress.

Or a worldwide best-selling author.

Or Christian Bale's baby mama

Veterinarian ...but without all that "school" stuff. And I'd only want to see healthy animals, because sick and injured animals make me sad.

Something NOT direct patient care! Possibly a biostatistican or biomedical engineer.

Occuaptional therapist was my original choice.

Without regard to pay and prerequisites and all that other stuff, my dream job is travel writer. I've always loved writing. Alas, with kids and a spouse and bills, I need more steady income.

Now? Maybe pharmacist or optometrist. Good hours, respect/prestige, and great pay.

Front desk clerk at a hotel :) I have worked at a department store, at 2 schools, at 2 diners, at a pizza place, and at Starbucks. When I worked Starbucks I smelled like coffee all the time, and you couldn't get the smell out of your hair/skin.
