yes, but don't you have to hang around a whole bunch of sick
people as part of the job description?

For now. But if you are offshored, that may change.



BWAHAHAHAHA!!!! Thanks for my laugh of the day. Apparently aviation isn't the
only subject you're ignorant of.

He. If nurses are only half as perverted as people in aviation, I'd be
in good shape.


Half? We're probably the most perverted people in polite society. No subject,
no matter how disgusting or secretion-based, is off-topic while people are
eating. We get to see all the things about people that they'd rather pretend
don't exist. Even George Bush probably has skid marks in his shorts; know what
I mean?

But irregardless of Numbnut's dire predictions, until someone in the United
States can be intubated from the other side of the ocean, my line of work is
probably safe. The only way to give hands-on care is to be on hand. I don't
see that changing in my lifetime.

So, bottom line... I make more on my coffee breaks than he does in a week. And
I only have to work 2 days a week. Life is good.

What gave you that idea? I do paperwork. I send my tech in to do the dirty
work. G

Try hanging around veterinarians, you might meet your match...

As for job being safe from offshoring, I still think my
plumber is the smartest guy I have met. Ok, you can't
do medical procedures from afar, but people are willing to
travel far to save quite a bit (and still get the same
quality of care -- medical tourism I believe they call
that); and with fast internet connections, how long do
you reckon it will take before we get our clearances all
the way from Bangalore?

I think you're in demand all over the US.

How do you offshore a nurse? G

Hey, I can do paperwork. That's what I do now, and it's funny how many
people think I wrench.

There are many things that RNs do that do not require RN
qualifications. A person with much more summary training, at a much
lower salary, could do the same thing. In some cases regulatory
barriers exist, but such barriers can be removed.

The only way to give hands-on care is to be on hand. I don't
see that changing in my lifetime.

I know lots and lots of people who didn't see any change coming before
they lost their jobs.
