11. Why is nursing such a horrible job?

    JC_Smith2009 replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

15. If it's such a horrible job, why not quit?

    JC_Smith2009 replied to sunnycalifRN's topic in General Nursing

    Just a question that I want to throw out there. If nursing per say is bad, arent there other areas that are less stressful such as NP, or CRNA, or something like that? I am just curious. Thanks everyone. Have a wonderful New Years :)
