Twelve hour shifts, which many nurses do including (me), prove that nurses really are masochists. We take a stressful job and make it even more stressful by extending it past a normal work day. People fought like hell to get the 8 hour day.
We tell ourselves: "Oh, I will have more days off if I work twelves..". haha and I have learned yes, we have more days off, but part of that time is recovering from choosing to work the twelves. OUCHY. I need a vacation.
