I feel like I would enjoy a career in nuring - is there a way to tell for sure b4 I spend a ton of $$? ![]() It is all possible. I am in my fourth year with three young children. Most of my clinicals have been days ( because the tutors and preceptors like days). I think in three years i have had to work 6 evening shifts 3-11. I will be an RN by next April, it is well worth it. It is possible to get day shifts all over the place--lots of staff like evenings because the majority of the physical work is done in the daytime. Evenings are quieter. However, I found evenings the MOST tiring with kids because as women we do not rest during the day but work all day and then have to work all evening. If you allow yourself to rest during the day you will be fine. I found I missed my family more during the evenings than the daytime. At least with days you will get to see your family every night. I have already been offered a casual position where I get to pick my shifts and I can buy into the benefit program if I want to. If you are a hard worker and have a good attitude the jobs will come to you--good luck--do it. Comment: Thanks! I do have a great work ethic and a very positive attitude so I think it will be great!
