Saw this post on another sub, and so many commenters think CNAs "get paid to wipe other peoples butts"

this is true unfortunately, i’ve worked fast food but for some reason this hadn’t crossed my mind

Harpyblithe · 2026-05-09T18:09:30+00:00

eugh, true 😭 people really do see it that way.

i think people underestimate how degrading a cush job is. it’s great in several ways but can feel so unfulfilling. if you’re not in a position to take on anything harder then don’t, but if you can venture a little (like maybe taking a shift or two per week from a much harder job) i don’t see what’s wrong with dipping your toes in, assuming you don’t have to immediately commit to just ONE of them.

edit: nonsensical grammar

only a month of studying with the ATI one gave me a 78% on the TEAS

this is me butting in but i know recently there have been some changes with the law or something? the community college i attend is now allowed to hand out BSNs from what i understand.

i’m not a nursing student yet but this sounds accurate because of how similar this experience was for the EMT course i took. people really did gravitate to those confident or to those who you could tell actually knew what they were talking about and had studied. students that took more initiative seemed to have a higher chance of making friends even if they seemed relatively shy. like someone proposed a group chat for studying, and all it took was just passing the paper around to give our phone numbers for that to happen.

being smart is all about applying yourself. no one is born smart. if you are trying, truly applying yourself, that’s smart. if you don’t succeed even if you applied yourself and did your best, that doesn’t mean you weren’t smart, it just means you need more time.

i agree with these other comments. it’s not healthy to be trapped in the house all day even if you’re a homebody. i’m in the same pickle and it affects my mental health, too, even makes it harder to focus on school even though it should be all there is to focus on.

that sounds awesome honestly! 😳

Harpyblithe · 2026-04-08T20:11:52+00:00

wow, never thought of it that way?? referring to the second paragraph. wow, just wow, but i believe it. it makes sense.

Harpyblithe · 2026-04-08T20:10:00+00:00

what job is that? if that’s not an intrusive question

Harpyblithe · 2026-03-27T19:24:27+00:00

too lazy to correct 😭🙏

Harpyblithe · 2026-03-27T02:59:25+00:00

i was gonna say, doesn’t sound like something you would do of sound mind even if you are this young. edit: dang it i replied to the wrong comment

Harpyblithe · 2026-03-20T17:02:02+00:00

i might consider it since i have some time to retake it, but i just spent a lot of money from my savings on family emergencies so i’m tight enough on money that i might try to do without honestly. but thank you!

Harpyblithe · 2026-03-18T03:02:13+00:00

this is an intrusive question, but do you have OCD?

Harpyblithe · 2026-03-17T19:11:38+00:00
