The time sink of being an RN is much less than the time sink of being a nursing student. It's actually easier in many ways. You don't have post-conference at the end of a clinical day. You aren't trying to study for a quiz, or write a paper, or read 400 pages by Friday. There's a lot to continue learning, but it takes place between set hours, and the additionally time you spend reading and familiarizing yourself with things outside that window is far reduced than while a student. Cling to the image of you sleeping more often, breathe deeply, and forge through. NNR,

Nurses need to mind their own business and leave politics at the door. We have enough to do in the hospital and avoid the basement like the plague, which those darn rats are major carriers of. You know, those rat/cat sized things down there in the creepy fluorescent lighting. Gah, where is my beer, I need another after that.
