Hi, Thanks for coming forward with this post as it only confirms to me there are sorry people like you in the industry. You're pretty good for judging my educational level from a few statements and realistic questions. I'm not like you that uses euphemisms to cover up scenarios that actually happen. Maybe you consider cleaning up people's sh1t, puke, puss, blood as tech support? Not that to say I'm not ready for it, either, but that's what it is and that's my question. I dunno if it's true, but to see that you have 20+ years and you still act the way you do, pretty sad. I'd hate to be your coworker. Under some stress, you'd probably freak out and start the blame game like everyone else.... Thanks for the compliment. So you suspect or judge aerospace manufacturing engineers to be a lot smarter, huh? I'm sorry to disappoint you and including myself, but that's not the case in the real world. Open your eyes...

Like the last post I responded, I totally agree with you. Thanks for clearing that up.

Thanks for the responses. The answers do help! As harsh as it may sound, that's reality to me. People often go around and try to sound nice not realizing what they're getting into. catshowlady - I totally agree w/ your ethical stand point and is making me think about the situation. The truth is, you know as well as i do not 100% people completely care, otherwise we won't have what we have in this world today. If you are fully in belief we are in utopia, then I take off my hat to you that you have so much confident in our industry. kcochrane - Thanks for the explanation

Hi, I'm complete noob to this. I'm a 5 year aerospace manufacturing engineer and am considering doing a career change to help people and family. I would like to know the real world experience. In this field, from the searching, the LPN does the dirty work; clean up poop..etc, needles, blood...etc and more tasks. True? The RN manages that and obviously a higher education. Is the experience level logic similar to other professions, as a RN can also perform or may need to perform LPN tasks when needed? From the lack of entry level RN experience, do they need to go through LPN training or experience? Also, can I transfer or have family members or friends go where I work? Theoretically, what if my friend is sick and I want to take care of her? Can I have her go where I work and be there(not 100% as I need to do my job) for her when needed? Obviously, I won't be favoring her, but it'd be nice if I can be where she is. From my experience or in California, people here are pricks even in hospitals. I rather look after my family and friends and have idiots that don't care doing things. I've searched and these are some questions that I didn't find. Please help as they would determine my final thoughts in becoming a nurse. Thanks!
