    You came into my feed. I have been a nurse for nearly 37.5 years. I had to work 8 hour shifts rolling morning evening nights for 2 years. Then I worked nights for 17 years. Peanut butter and water was what I lived on during busy shifts. I did stay on my night schedule till I had a baby. Then working nights was hard. I worked 1 on 1 off so no outside childcare. I also worked a lot of extra shifts till I had a baby. That allowed me to work as necessary shifts for 4 years after baby alongwith other sacrifices we made. I am a ICU nurse, thankfully no longer at the bedside as I cannot physically care for heavy patients after the multiple work injuries. My advice is practice self care always. God bless.

    One reason why at 41- after 18 years of random shifts, holidays, overtime & neglecting myself for the sake of nursing/ I quit night shift 2 months ago when I started having blood pressure problems. I now have a 13 yr old & I refuse to work night shift if I can avoid it. No one ever offered me day shift in all my 18 years. no matter my tenures, I always was stuck on nights. please make sure you take care of yourself. it may not be bad now at 23 but over time, it will affect your body. I also lost a lot of time with my daughter as I was working nights & working on my degree. Nursing keeps bills paid but it has no mercy on nurses.

For now I’m having fun with it but I’ll likely step away when I start a family :’) I’m sure your 13yo appreciates the extra time they have with you now.

    I’m a recently retired surgical nurse. I worked in the same hospital for 40 years and loved it until Covid hit. I started my career working nights, but not for 12-hr shifts though! Ah, the stamina of youth. Feet are so different and not all shoes fit the same. Crocs didn’t work for me even though they’re more affordable. Have you tried the clogs from Calzuro? They were designed for the OR and have great protection and ventilation. They’re pricey, but they last. I went through 4 pairs in my entire career. I wear them exclusively for work, and leave them in my locker at work. The nubs in the clogs that are designed to stimulate your feet are off putting. I circumvented that irritation by wearing foam inserts in them. Nursing is an all-around practical career. I wish you continued stamina and success as you explore what it can offer you.

Girl - it was all I could do to sleep and work on my 3 night runs. 🙂 Granted I did wake up at 2pm to do the after school Mom thing and make sure littles were fed before I went in. Not lying when I say there are years that I do not remember because of being in a sleepy fog.

    About the seatbelt, get the things that go on them. I have a pink fluffy thing that goes on it by my neck. I’m 5’0 so also have that issue but never bothers me with that. I’m a PA now but I used to be a CNA and worked nights (I’m never working nights again) and I was exhausted by the end of day 3. I’m not sure how you’re doing 6 nights in a row. I’m looking into a hospitalist position so I may be working 7 on and 7 off but during the day.

    @@xomaeve If you ever visit Florida wear sunscreen, a sun hat, and sunglasses. I wear my sun protection combo everyday paired with sun clothing. Florida's UV warnings are consistently 10+. Disney is great. Our winter is 60 degrees and our summer heat averages 88-96; however, we can hit triple digits from time to time. If you do come to Florida one day I highly recommend clear water beach over Daytona for central Florida. Myakka River State Park is pretty, too. Miami Ocean drive is not bad; however, I like Dania for less tourists its about 2 hours north of Miami. Nice peer and restaurant. Hollywood beach is also nice if you do not mind an older crowd. Naples and Fort Myers also have a slightly older crowd but very nice. I also recommend Disney during our fall near winter. Summer has a lot of the teens with all year passes; therefore, lines can be 2+ hours for a single ride. We also have beautiful Springs like Rainbow springs. Anyway, I love your channel. I look forward to seeing your content.

    As an EMS worker, my eyes widened a bit when I saw how you wear your seatbelt. Just fyi, and for any readers that dont know about this feature, I know you said you dont like where it sits on your neck. You moved your seat all the way up, but it looks like you didnt move the seatbelt origin down. If you look at where the seatbelt originates from the B pillar, there is a button you can press and hold to slide the seatbelt position up and down. It looks to be in the highest setting in this video which is why it sits high up and close to your neck

    Hey! So if I am scheduled to work, but we have very few patients on our unit compared to how many nurses we have on the schedule, the day shift charge nurse will call a nurse who is supposed to come in that night and ask if they want to be on call. So then they will be able to stay home unless additional nurses are needed on the unit, then they would be called in! :) hope that helps.
