[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nurses are overworked.[/quote]

Nurses don't take work home, nor are they expected to.

Nursing has a ratio problem, so yes they're "overworked" while on the clock, but they can home home without having to have patient meetings and paperwork on their own time.[/quote]

Nurses and other medical professionals have to work holidays. I have missed either Thanksgiving or Christmas with my family every year of my adult life. Teachers don't have that problem.[/quote]

+1 you're really not going to convince anyone that nurses have it easier. For a lot of reasons that should be obvious.[/quote]

Playing the suffering olympics versus nurses is not a good look for teachers.

Why not just tell us how your job is harder than those at meat-packing facilities.  [/quote]

You’re comparing apples to oranges there. Teachers have a 4 yr degree as a minimum. Many workers in meat packing aren’t even legal in this country. Not comparable. Teachers and nurses are similar in terms of education. Both professions have shortages but nobody wants to listen to those doing the job as to why they are leaving. In many cases, it’s an easy, cheap fix. [/quote]

UGHHHH.  You aren't getting the point.  Different jobs have different features and are not comparable, and yet you insist on comparing them to say that teachers have it worst.  You are COMPARING nurses and teachers to say teacher have it worse, not allowing that they are NOT COMPARABLE.  [/quote]
