Dead Horse?
Shock it back to life.
Everyone bailed.
How could a healthcare company
NOT make money in a pandemic?
We made headlines yesterday.
Corporate put together a
Lovely, inclusive video
5 years.
They bought PSA.
They bought EPIC.
They tried to buy Maxim.
They’re everyone’s darling.
Some 50,000 nurses.
Well?
Right now, being a Nurse
In a Global Pandemic
is like being on a low fat diet.
Crappy food choices and shitty blood work.
And you’re ready to live off the
“Fat Of The Land”!
I am done metaphorically
-I would never be low fat-
with a so-called life filled with
low-fat cheese products,
rice cakes,
steamed chicken breast,
Steamed broccoli,
So-called heart healthy grains,
Cheerios with skim milk and
I Cant Believe It’s Not Butter.
If I can do THIS
And have the discipline
To stay with it…
And if I can read THIS…
At a glance and know what it going on…
Then I can certainly learn how to read THIS!
I’m teaching myself stocks, trading,
Options, BitCoin, and Investing.
Let’s just see where it goes?
I taught myself wound care,
Home Health, Pediatrics,
And Hospice.
There’s a lot of talk about
Nurses Being Heroes.
But lots of talk. Not much else.
I asked for a raise - a quarter-
And was told they couldn’t afford it.
So I make all the overtime I can.
The Nursing Shortage
Is squeezing the life
Out of Nursing. Again.
The first mass exodus I went through
Was during the AIDS Pandemic.
People were scared shitless.
I wasn’t. I embraced it.
That’s in 1990 - when I first started.
This time… something is different.
I’m older. Maybe wiser?
I’m certainly NOT a math whiz.
You don’t have to be for nursing.
And you don’t have to be for investing.
What if this could be more than a hobby?
More than an IRA?
(With 2% matching funds!)
(Which I just got this year, by the way!)
Hmmmm… it would be great!
It could even be done on vacation.
Or even a super long vacation!
Or a semi-permanent vacation.
Something to think about!
When you get mad enough,
It might be time for a change.
