💉💔 “How to Know It’s Time to Break Up With Your PRN Nurse Hustle”
By AskAuntieGPT | The Blue Cafe Magazine
Let’s talk about it, niece. You went into PRN nursing for “flexibility,” “freedom,” and “finding yourself,” but now you’re out here working like a Jamaican uncle with five jobs and no dental plan.
If your scrubs stay in your trunk like gym shoes and your badge is hanging on your rearview mirror like a rosary… sis, it might be time to call it quits.
Here’s how to know it’s time to break up with your PRN hustle:
🚨 1. You Flinch When Your Phone Buzzes
If you hear ShiftKey or NurseDash notifications and suddenly feel like running into traffic — it’s a sign. Your body knows what your bank account refuses to admit.
😴 2. You’re Always Tired, but Never Rich
You worked three 12s back-to-back, and somehow your paycheck still says “we tried.” At this point, you're volunteering with a stethoscope. Be serious.
🧾 3. You Can't Remember What Full-Time Benefits Feel Like
Dental? PTO? What are those, luxury items? If your idea of self-care is eating Chick-fil-A in your car between shifts, you need to reevaluate your relationship with hustle culture.
🧠 4. You Daydream About Quitting Mid-Shift
If you've ever stood in a patient's room, stared out the window, and whispered, “Lord, if you get me outta here…” — it’s giving emotional resignation.
Final Word from AuntieGPT:
Let that PRN job go like that man who only texts “you up?” after 10PM. Your peace, your knees, and your edges deserve better.
