Because I'm definitly not mentaly able to cope with all that drama and stuff I would be forced to deal with.

The story I hear from my brother are already terrible enough.

Like, he told me about an old man with dementia, who was crying that he wants to see his mother for hours. With him at an age, where his mother was undoubtly gone for sure.

If I had to deal with such regulary, I would practically commit suicide by alcohol poisoning.

Kinda regret it.

I dont like people. It doesnt interest me at all. Besides Im 47 now and been doing my current work for 30 years now. No use changing now. Plus I make more money than RNs in my area. Take your pick of the multitude of reasons I wouldnt do it.

nurses don't *have* to work in hospitals. I work in a nursing home and some of the nurses are making $30-40 per hour depending on experience and what shift they work. most of them just work normal 8 hour shifts or 7am-7pm. and they mostly just give people meds and check wounds and deal with family members, all the grunt work like changing people and wiping asses and showering is done by the CNAs. if they work overnight pretty much all they have to do is give out meds and drinks and deal with the occasional person who won't sleep.

Don't a lot of nurses start as CNAs? Still, just a bit too "hands-on" for me. I'm content on the pharmacy track.

oh yeah, they do. that's why I said I didn't want to get into nursing. but they also only have to do it for a year or two if they go to nursing school at the same time.

Never got why people give so much crap to janitors/custodians. They have my respect because there is no way I could handle a job dealing with other people's waste. Not sure which triggers me faster, sight or smell? Either way, my gag reflex is very easy to trigger.
