   that's definitely a situation that would make someone question their career choice. I've experienced something like this before and it drove me crazy. I eventually found something else, a non-bedside position and I would say that I feel better about ...

   Best Remote Nurse Jobs?

   JerDJ replied to TheRn's topic in Career Support

   JerDJ replied to PizzaNurse2023's topic in Career Support
