what?

Nurses are treated like shit, by the government, hospital administration and patients alike. To willingly suffer such constant torment from all sides, one would have to be a masochist.

I try to be as nice as possible to all people until they give me a reason to change my behavior. Everyone deserves respect until they gamble it away 💖

Don't forget how the patient's family treats nurses.

I guess studying for 5-6 years is considered wild.

Naw dog. Nursing school is way more high stakes. You can get kicked out of the program for very little, it's very high stakes. There are exams that you have to get 100% on or you're out of the program. Iirc, you can get kicked out of the program for not being 15 minutes early too many times. Not for being late, for not being early. At least we compensate them with mediocre pay and shitty hours and horrible bosses upon graduation...

Depends on the nursing degree. Usually only 2-4, some programs are only a year.

The MDs and DOs do 4+
