I have many nurse friends/acquaintances, but away from their work (which is where I see them) most of them strike me as the people least likely to become nurses. maybe they save all their empathy for the patients. The one I know best certainly says some horrible things about the families of her patients, much of them stereotyping/labeling-type comments that make me very uncomfortable. But she deals with children with cancer and I suspect it's a mechanism to stop her "caring too much". But I think I might be more concerned if she were deciding the course of treatment.
