I work two jobs- one in acute care adult med surge. I hate it but im learning so much and getting great experience. The other I love in subacute pediatrics. I want to be an NP eventually but need the money, experience and skills. I suffer through my full time job so I can do my part time job which pays less but I love.

Well I am happy to say I am on my way to being a one-job RN. I gave notice to my teaching job, and they offered to convert me to adjunct rather than part-time, but I declined. I feel like I will get sucked back into working more than I want to if I do that, so I will finish teaching my current students and then be done with all part-time things. I feel good about this.
