What else would I do?

Taco Bell?

But seriously, there's a ton of other things with that license that you can do. Is it bedside you're tired of? You could go to a transfer center, social work, PICC team, education, etc.

Depending on what level of nursing, you could make a ton sitting behind a desk at home working for the insurance companies as a nurse auditor. As stated above, teaching is an option. What kinds of things do you like to do in your spare time?

I feel your pain PD!

I am going to be 57 next month, and I have said repeatedly that " this is what I am doing TODAY". I am not sure about tomorrow yet, and I am going to look for non nursing options for employment myself.

For me it isn't about staying sober as much as it is exhausting dealing with the board requirements. My urine comes back as "abnormal" about 50% of the time, and all our tests are observed. I have to contact the MRO tomorrow about another " abnormal" urine, and have gotten a warning letter for missed check ins, and not doing anything in life except working and going to meetings.

I feel like I check in more with Vault health than I check in with God! It is truly just a PIA.
