NOW HIRING: NO NEW GRADS, NO NEW GRADS...please apply.

[danedsel]

My, oh my, oh, chicken pie. Could it be that we don't have a nursing shortage as much as we have an EXPERIENCED nursing shortage? One can only speculate when rumors abound.

Since I have the luxury of exposing this thread topic to so many users nationwide, I'm curious as to your experiences, your brother's, your aunt's, and any ex-journalist's story of post-NCLEX depression. I'm tempted to really only open this discussion to the dirges of wallowing nursing grads likened to the disappointment grousing of B.A. holders everywhere.

I'm that B.A. holder. Would you like fries with that? *insert appropriate emoticon here that doesn't exist but that conveys anger, astonishment, neurosis, insomnia, flatulence and indigestion*
