Is The Stress Of Nursing School Worth The Nursing Career?

In an accelerated BSN program and its 100x more stressful and fast paced than I ever expected. I’m getting good grades but I feel anxious and stressed 24/7. I don’t sleep well now either so I’m tired all the time. Each day I go to school or clinicals come home and study. Thats my life. I’m thinking of quitting nursing school and taking some human resources classes instead since my other undergrad degree is pretty much useless. I went into this to help others, help my family, have a rewarding career, etc. Now I don’t know if its worth it or not. And I had been planning on working in a dr’s office or outpatient after grad but its seems like those jobs need a few years of med/surg inpatient experience. Let me know what you think.

Is A Certificate Of Higher Education Worth Doing?

I’m about to start college but I’m debating whether it would be better to take a 1 year certificate on something, to get a decent paying job, or just go after an the Associates in Art?
This are some of the certificates I have review:
Business Administration on Human Resources.
International Business & trade.
Management-Supervisor.
Any recommendation are appreciated.

Is It Worth Doing A Masters Degree In Human Resources Management?

I am not sure if human resources is the right field to go into and whether doing a masters in HR will be worth it… I’m just worried that there might be no jobs next year or so if the recession lingers.

Why Do People Think They Are Worth Much More Than They Are?

Not personally,but as in the job seeking business? I’m a Human Resources Director and of course,I’m in charge of all the hiring. Last week,I held interviews for several Data Entry postions. It’s not a glamourous job but it’s real easy. All you have to do is take your stack of paperwork and enter it into a computer. Here are some stories of the people who I interviewed:
Keep in mind that the state I live in,the minimum wage is $6.55/hr
I had one young lady come in,18 years old,just out of high school,and wanted $12/hr
I had a young man,23 years old,was in the military for 4 years and wanted $32,000/year
Another young man,has an associates in criminal justice,wanted $40,000 a year,which is a little less than what I make(been with the company 7 years and have a Bachelors in Human Resource)
You should have seen their faces when I told them that the most we could pay was $7/hr to someone with experience
