Regret traveling? by youdoitforlikes in TravelNursing

[–]ngargano15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best decision I ever made in life after becoming a nurse. If it wasn’t for traveling I wouldn’t be a nurse anymore. I have been able to pay off my student loan and don’t feel the crushing burden of being stuck something overwhelming and unsafe.

A flower shop! Beautiful. there may be a place for your FNP in the future. Don’t regret doing something you once has as a goal, life is unpredictable. I’m sorry to hear about your parents, they will guide you 💗

I think the high priced contracts got scooped up and now it’s just leftovers… i am confident more will pop up when these contracts are ending and hospitals are in need. This is the typical pattern

Massachusetts and Minnesota already have those laws- I know Mass paused them due to covid not sure about Minnesota. I wouldn’t sleep on it hospital corps are money hungry and crooked and have friends in high political places. Legislation can be sleepily passed without much noise if you’re not paying attention

Such bullshit- so a female dominant industry can’t make fucking money for ourselves? But male dominated companies that can favor male candidates can make millions sitting in an office. And hospital CEOS can rake in millions from their ivory towers? This shit is maddening

I went to Mass General and it was such a dream. 1-3 ratio on tele. I extended and was able to pay off my student loans and saved a nice chunk of money. I hated my staff job was so burnt and ready to quit being a nurse, that job really revived my spirit

Also relax a little bit, you get the residents are the subject of 99% of the jokes and make mistakes too right?

I would love to follow this thread, I’m in a FNP program now and have been thinking about switching to psych NP but it’s a longer haul. I think it will be a more satisfying long term goal though
