Why am I going through school to be a nurse?
I’m really struggling right now. I’m waiting to talk to my wife after her dinner. I’m on the verge of dropping my classes.
Anatomy is really taking a lot out of me right now and I’m not doing well in the class.
At the end of the day, do I want to be a nurse? Not really. Sure it’s a job, that pays decent/well, lots of opportunities, etc.
I’m doing it for money. Because I’m lacking money right now. But I’m just burnt out right now.
At $25 per hour as a paramedic, I won’t be able to afford the lifestyle I want. (ie; I want to comfortably buy what I want, travel, buy a car, property, etc) unless I work crazy overtime hours.
