Sitting here mad af that I’m staying until 11a after a 12 hr shift :francis:

Then I remembered this thread and how bad I wanted to be here :wow:

Breh, I feel you on this one. I work 6 12hr shifts in a row as my schedule and have been doing that for over a year now. I hate every aspect of life while working it, even after reminding myself that I was the one who asked to get my schedule changed to that insane routine in the first place.

:snoop:

I work 6 days straight then have off 8 days straight every pay period. Ultimately not worth it though.

excuse my ignorance but can someone explain what is hard about the nursing programs?
Is it just the sheer volume of material and pace or is the actual technical aspects of the practice hard to grasp?
I dated a doctor during her med school era and it seemed like a lot of memorization honestly but i'm sure i'm oversimplifying it since i would just walk pass the room and see her studying flash cards at 1am

I'm in tech so used to constantly studying, but looking to do something where i don't need to learn completely new paradigms every 12 months

Grind it out now man. Look into getting your job to pay for you to get your BSN and possibly your M-FNP in the future.

It’s more understanding than memorization, plus the sheer volume, pace and concept that any minute detail can be on the exam. In an accelerated program you don’t really get breaks and every semester is like the hunger games. You aren’t really supposed to work during either.
