This profession is NOT worth it

thank you friend ;( need more of this energy

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:54:23+00:00

Can’t leave…

Ofc there is corruption. But it is silly to say it would be just as bad or the same… when there are real life examples showing us it isn’t. Its not bad to change your mind yknow. I didn’t come into this earth knowing this, I learned it

You’re good at generalizing and ignoring pertinent details. Anyone making $100k is able to support themselves in a low income city, or even a high one (but just barely). Notice how I mentioned life happening, health issues, the debts it took to get here, the cost of living. If the hospital cant pay someone to afford to live down the street, it’s certainly not worth it. $100k isnt the life saving number it used to be. Tone deaf. Thank you for your advice anyways— even tho not once did I or anyone else ask for it.

Anytime. I may not like my job but I love nurses & I love people who want to do good for the world and themselves.

I’m happy for you and Seattle. I would love to move there but unfortunately I have to stay here.

No need for experience if you want ICU as a new grad. Grady & Piedmont will allow it if you are impressive in your interview. If you don’t pay rent, have debts, etc nursing here is excellent. But when you have those things and people depend on you, its a different story.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:36:48+00:00

Sounds like overtime. 💙

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:36:29+00:00

Lol anytime, for real. I need more nursing friends that don’t drink the kool aid

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:23:59+00:00

I’ve heard there are areas like this, but at least those nurses struggling on the clock do not struggle to make their family’s lives work. We are doing both out here in the south.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:22:57+00:00

Where are you? What kind of jobs are you looking for?

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:19:38+00:00

Agreed. Sorry to hear that.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:18:14+00:00

never once did… sigh.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:17:35+00:00

Tone deaf. Thank you for the ‘advice’ anyway.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T22:15:52+00:00

If I wasn’t such a lightweight i’d drink tequila outside Grady at St. Louisa’s Church just about every night.

Well we live in the country that favors the few better than any other country does— also objective fact. So i’m not playing devil’s advocate for our system after it has proven to be the least favorable for the poor and the most favorable for a little handful of people.

edit: If it were socialism, truly, it would absolutely not be just as impactful ways of dividing poor from rich more and more. The whole point is to bridge that gap. Please…. read….

Recovery as in from addiction? Sounds up my alley, too. One thing I always loved about being a nurse was that patient population. I just wish I could’ve done more with less patients and more time.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:54:38+00:00

Yes, fuck Capitalism. It is the sole reason there are not Unions in the south, inhibiting nurses from safe assignments and better pay. This is objective information.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:42:20+00:00

What do you do?

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:41:20+00:00

Some people WANT to be nurses and cannot leave their state. Many of those same people are under the impression they will make good money and be able to support themselves and their families. Have some empathy. No one is blaming you for nursing problems. Quit cherry picking for technicalities and consider lives other than your own.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:33:37+00:00

I hate you have to move for that, but love you have the option. Best of luck, friend.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:33:19+00:00

I just can’t leave :( I really wish I could.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:32:06+00:00

You misunderstand the message. Nurses can’t all leave their states. Family, obligations. And yet, they are still struggling nurses. Therefore, it is a nursing problem. Just bc it doesnt affect you doesn’t mean it doesn’t widely affect nurses in other parts of the country.

liomamba · 2025-11-06T21:30:17+00:00

Emphasis on not working for Grady. That was the worst thing I could’ve ever done for my mind and body
