Are these really the people that should be required to work so much? Isn’t their job about handling life and death daily? Wouldn’t we want exactly these people to come fully rested to work every single day and be fully staffed?

I don’t know if there are jobs with similar stakes that are so carelessly staffed and disgustingly paid.

      Yeah during Covid you should have seen my inbox, recruiters offering like $12000 sign on bonus for 9 week contracts, like $4000 a week in rural New York or Florida. But I had fucked off to Norway by then so, wasn’t for me. And I’ll never work as a nurse anywhere but California anyway (until the other states follow suit and mandate safe staffing by law).
