Reply to comment by [deleted] in Talks continue as approximately 9,000 nurses threaten to strike at 4 NYC hospitals by DrogDrill

Believe it. My partner is an ICU nurse and has worked in at least 4 nyc hospitals over the past decade. He frequently does not get to eat his packed lunch and has days where he didn't get to use the bathroom until the end of his shift. Also that 12.5 hr shift can go over depending on patient demands/timing. The lack of breaks seems consistent across the hospital systems in NYC.

You have no idea. Mine has panic attacks and cries everytime she has to go in. She's been doing it for 3 years. I wrap her in a gf burrito or let her shower cry.

Maybe he’s telling you things you don’t care about because he can as well

Why ask, then say you don't care about the answer? Unless you wanted to make a big show about how you don't care, in which case it was performative, and actually quite embarrassing for you as a person.

I think the better question is why does anyone care that you don't care?

Yeah you gonna say that when an overworked, overstressed nurse makes a mistake in your healthcare and you suffer? Loser.
