Knowing a nurse in every category except CRNA, I'd have to say their poll was spot on. Was it accurate for you?: LPN, RN, NM (nurse mgr), CNS, NP, CRNA

not endorsing attitude about complaining without offering solutions.. but it's a different matter when the disatisfaction is in nursing is mostly caused by things that are outside their/our control, such as staffing, adequate resource, and again staffing. Those are universal as we know problem in nursing and hospital systems in general, and the administration does nothing to tackle that problem in most places because keeping bare minimum to get by in staffing means more money for everyone. I was lucky enough to get out, but I am sure many won't find a cushy job in nursing unless you get into admin.

I guess you can form a strike and walk out, or have the hosptial become unionized, but that brings another problem. I am not in hospital so I don't care about unions, but personally seeing how disgusting administration is to nurses and employees, I rather have something that's equally problematic to administration to fight it... at least we can stick it up in them.
