Older nurses vs younger nurses

[Girlygirl69]

I'm sick and tired of the older nurses vs younger nurses crap. We all have the same damn degree and we do the same damn work. I was at work the other day and two senior nurses were in the break room bragging about how when they were in nursing school they had to work so much harder than nowadays and yadda yadda yaaaa. In my head I said, " whatever *****, I worked hard for my degree. Please don't discredit me, and just because my NCLEX test was computerized doesn't make it easier. Half of these old broads in my facility can't even charge their cellphone without my help I could imagine them taking the boards using a computer" sry people I just needed to vent. We nurses can sometimes be our own worst enemy. Forget the docs and administration, we love to knock down the newbie so that we can feel better about ourselves. Stop the madness people

I see sooooo many overweight nurses in their 20s I often mistake them for someone in their 50s cause that's the age they look.

What's wrong with 50s? Not all 50-something people are overweight after all.

Anyhow this thread is 5 years old. Let it die. This subject is done to death here.

Nothing wrong with 50s. Read again to comprehend. They look like they're much older because weight makes many look much older than they really are.

I did notice the age. It was a popup in my email. The subject is still relevant to some. If you don't think so, then don't read or respond. Simple as that.

I comprehend just fine. No need to insult anyone's intelligence. And this subject is well-done by many. You need only search more recent threads. This is what some people call a "zombie" thread, lol.

Not an insult. You did not comprehend in the way I meant it. Enough!
