*sigh* so many ways to get killed in this world just doing your job.  The very idea of it is almost enough to make me give up on trying to get into nursing.

If you are into nursing for the money (and mobility...I'll give you that)  then I would never want you taking care of me and I venture to guess those nurses in your family haven't give you nearly enough insight.  good luck


ps. (here's where I edited) For anyone who wants to go into nursing for the right reasons:  the changes of contracting a disease are unbelieveably minimal when you adhere to proper precautions. 

However, for Masque66 dear god it's so unbelievably high you should run screaming....I have ten disease as we speak just from caring from kids the last year....run run fast...nursing sucks!

*shrugs* you may not want me, but some people will get me.  They'll get the best treatment I can give because I always do my work to the best of my ability.  It's a matter of both pride and honor to me.  But for honesty's sake, I won't lie and say that some perfect strangers each mean something special to me.  Everyone has something they want to do with their lives.  Some people get to do it and some people do something else until they can.  And if I'm capable of getting an 'other' job that will pay well, that's what I'm goign to do.  I'm not going to settle for flipping burgers simply because I don't have deep moral reasons for wanting to go into nursing.

And honestly, you've already made your point that the threat of MRSA is not great.  And I confirmed it afterwards.  So if you don't mind please stop making me out to be a paranoid idiot.

However, considering all the benefits nursing lends to being a master I'm not about to give it up right away.  (original quote from Masque 66)

What do you mean benefist to being a Master?  You sick pos, what does your lifestyle have to do with your job?  And you then say again (quoting) Becoming a nurse for the dom capabilities is not my primary push. 

What do you mean "dom capabilities" ?

Another quote "Sorry that I don't find caring for them to be a treasure in itself. "

If I ever EVER know you in person, not only will I do my best to run you out of the field, I will also make it my life commitment you never work in nursing again.  If you want to make money for the sake of making money, without regard for others, than by all means, have the balls to go into business on your own.  Sick pukes like you in my profession, a noble caring profession, need eliminated and fast.  You give not only nursing a bad name by your continued existance in the field, you also dishonor every male nurse by perpetuating a stereotype.

Go live under a rock and feed off of lichen you sick pos.

I'm feeling much better now.

Boy are you defensive. This isn't about you. You actions speak louder than words. You going to have to toughen up some to be a nurse. Relax!

Both the comment before yours and the comment after yours were directed at me.  I agree that this wasn't about me.  And frankly I'm annoyed that it became that way.  But remember I didn't ask for commentary about my choices, it was simply posted.

Earthycouple, the money may not seem good to you, but it's better than what either of my parents are making at the end of their careers.  Also, you do not know me and thus have no comprehension of my capabilities.  Yes, I can do that.  There is no doubt in my mind.

We have a MRSA-positive household, unfortunately.  It started with my oldest UM when she was an only, spread to me, then my husband, and now my youngest UM.  With all 4 of us positive it has been quite the fight to extinguish it in our family.  I was told basically to expect to keep testing positive as long as they are this young.  I don't know if this was said to make me feel better, but I do try my best to maintain proper hygeine when someone's having issues. We do the ointment in the nose, the weeks long stents of antibiotics, special soaps, etc.  Ultimately toddler UMs will spread no matter what we do.  It's been a fight, but the UMs have only had 1 outbreak of boils and I had a string of them in my lymph nodes.  My Sir is positive but has had no ill effects.
