   Most nurses do not have a master's... so there? I haven't been illiterate or stupid. I've been reasonable and given the benefit of the doubt numerous times. I just end up repeating myself because the points I try to communicate get overlooked to att...

   Do you have a bachelor's? I rest my case. Sorry to bother you. But surely you read it for a reason. I only felt irked while reading nurses saying things like, if you want a job where you "do not have to think" a laboratory technician is the job for ...
