How much do you pay? I may make a career change!

OP: do what ever you like and makes you happy and able to unwind, enjoy it while you can!!

Ive never just sat around and I’m bored out of my mind rightnow. And I did all that and I’m still bored.

So your house is spotless, you're buffed, you're sick of all your friends, you have a closet full of clean clothes, your bills are paid, your car is like new, your fridge is bulging with delicious things and there's nothing good on TV? The library? A movie? Deliver Meals-on-Wheels? An art appreciation class? Scuba diving? Walk dogs at the local shelter?

If you're asking a question like this, it's time to find a hobby.

You're (presumably) young, single, untethered, and living in a time where just about anything we want is at our fingertips. I don't think anyone has the right to be "bored" in today's day and age, but that applies doubly to people in your situation.

Delve deeper into a craft, go on some dates, read/learn for pleasure, exercise/focus on self-improvement, socialize, travel, etc.

This is such an intense question, omg. It kinda left me speechless for a second, lol.

So presumably you have plenty of energy left on your days off, *after* you've done all the obligatory cooking, cleaning, etc. You have some disposable income, you're game to try some new things. Is this an accurate picture?

What did you miss doing during nursing school? Or what have you always wanted to try but haven't yet? Those are good places to start. Something creative, learning am instrument, making art; something physical like getting into some kind of sports league. If you like, there's all kinds of online dating to amuse yourself with. You could plan a vacation. There are really quite a lot of possibilities, but they are best decided by you and not strangers on the internet.

Sorry, but that's your own fault. You're seriously asking total strangers how to fill your hours? You're an adult. You are perfectly capable of figuring out what you like to do, and then doing it.

Okay boredy-pants, here's a suggestion:

Study personal finance. Make yourself a budget and figure out how to save and invest money. Start saving and investing as much as you can. Check out the FIRE people and get yourself in a position to become one of them.

If you need another job in order to get the snowball going, it sounds like you have time for that.

?

(I'm serious)

Maybe I didn’t make myself clear when I asked this question. I meant to ask do people have 2nd job and if yes, what kind of nursing or non-nursing job?

Eveyone on here, I did not ask anyone how to fill my life nor am I sick of my friends. I was only asking if someone had any interesting idea.

I was under the impression that this forum is all about helping eachother, not embarrass anyone for asking for suggestions.

Thanks for clarifying your question. I think you got the responses that you did because the first post was so vague.

For myself over the years, I've done an extra nursing job prn at nursing home, prn medical transcription (way back in the day), prn home health, social media writing.

I also volunteer on my rural fire dept, with a prison activist group in my state and in my church.

Absolutely nobody was rude to you or refusing to help you. Your original post was baffling. Go back and re-read it and honestly answer if based on the original post YOU would know the information you posted later. Communication is key and in this case yours was not effective.

For future reference, if you seek specific information, post a specific question. "What should I do on my day off?" is not very specific, is it?
