They are definitely not good people. They just chose that profession so they could feel better about themselves. They are self-centered people so don't think just because they are a nurse that they are a good person. However I would advise you not to leave this planet as you put it just because of those awful people.
I think of them as Community College Scholars.
Too many of them thought to themselves, "All I have to do is take two years at a junior college and then I'll be making tons of money!"
I'm not impressed with a lot of these "front line heroes" (they don't do what they do for free, they're not working for minimum wage), too many times there's not a lot of care in those who work in the "care profession".
I'm not allowed to have marijuana in my system if I want to work at certain local retail establishments nor am I allowed to smoke if I want a low-paying, draining, crappy office job but they can sneak into the hospital medicine cabinet if they're so inclined.
My sister-in-law has been a nurse for years and is the family breadwinner based on her salary. Her reality would change a great deal if the medical establishment started testing her for alcohol abuse, nicotine and illegally purchased opiates and other illegally purchased medicines that were not prescribed for her.
A high-risk labor delivery nurse who drank and smoked throughout all three of her pregnancies, a drunk addicted hospice nurse whose allowed into people's homes on a regular basis.
Go figure.
