Finally! Yes, more respect for nurses. And I have heard the "nurse for the purse" phrase said about some nurses. Implying they do it for the money. That's so silly. If nursing is someone's get rich quick scheme, they need to rethink it.

What's your get rich quick plan?

Reply: Nursing's my big plan. I'm going to go to college for 4 years, damn near go into debt, then spend more years working my ass off getting more certifications so that I can take care of people and make sure they don't die.
