Actually doing what
I do,
basically all the dirty work ,I don't get paid much at all. I make $9.25 an hr to take care of 16+ mean old people that like to fight you. Well, not all of them are like that but the majority I'd say. Nurses make anywhere from like $16-$30 maybe more to basically pass meds, change dressings, and chart. They actually are required to do more
technically , patient care wise, but they think they don't have to. But my facility is pretty fucked up like that. We get no credit for what we do and yet we are what's keeping a lot of those people alive.

I don't want to quit because I've already been there 3 years and I'm about to go to nursing school so I can break free from being an underdog. Plus I do actually care for a lot of the people there and don't want to leave them despite having a burning hatred for one in particular. Also, I only work two days a week and I get paid full time for 32 hrs...I work two 12's on the weekend so I only have to put up with the insanity for 2 days a week.
