Working on pre-nursing courses now, and even cheating aside, the online shit is a bad joke. Like instead of lecture you just get assigned chapters.

"Online lab" and "online clinicals" are both a thing, and they're both as stupid as they sound. And every hospital is hurting for nurses so badly that school programs are under a lot of pressure to just accept everyone who applies.

I don't see good things for the future of the healthcare industry. Hopefully all the bullshit will at least translate to a decent pay check, but I know better than to put any faith in that either.

Fuck yeah! One of the cool things about a universal staffing shortage in a specific field is even if I get fired, there will always be demand somewhere else. 100% support for the strikes going on lately, and will absolutely hold the line when it's my turn.
