Just to give a shout out to rep all my RN friends, we should all be very grateful that nurses do what they do, for every grotesque scenario of patient care many would prefer not to do, a nursetakes care of it. Sure there may ne a few cranky ones (just like there are a few angry pharmDs, MDs, etc), but most of the RNs I work with are really nice and for every time I help one of them out, they help me out (w/pt condition details prior to a dosing/rec to MD, etc). I know you all were not knocking them, but i have a feeling Rham Emmanual, or whatever dudes name was that just got banned, was stating just that. NEway what he failed to realize in his anti pharmacy,etc rant, is that if our profession fell apart most of use are intellectually inclined enough to be successful in another career/profession. Common sense would likely lead one to believe that you would want more professions/careers to stay/become high paying in light of the fact that there has been such a flight of jobs overseas, if you wish ill will on every job you see as overpaid, you would soon see no viable career options for our country. I personally LIKE the idea of friends in other professions getting paid well (md, rn, od, dds, etc) and hope that they would wish the same for me, it's sort of the "all ships rise with the tide" theory, if my MD buddies start making 60k/yr, then it's gonna be hard to imagine pharmacy getting paid more than them. Point is, don't waste time complaining on an Internet forum about how life isn't fair, and dissing the same profession as the forum you are posting in; no wonder this individual didn't make the grade, no empathy/altruism/decency whatsoever.
