I missed mylotters so much. So, whats up? What are new to you. Me, finally I land a job now but I am still to undergo a training. What should I do now to those people who are criticizing me. I am registered nurse and now my job is a manager in a burger store. And I have to undergo a training as a crew for 12 days and 15 days training as a manager. So, what now? I heard some gossip from a friend and my relatives that they don't like it to see me working in those kind of job, they said it's degrading. Huh, I so tired of entertaining them. This is what I want to start from the button. What's the best thing to do if you were in my place now.

you made the right move and don't bother to mind what they're saying, that won't help..getting a good job with a good pay nowadays is very hard to catch because companies tend to increase their applicant qualifications. How much more to a licensed Nurse like you which according to a statistic that there are 2,500 Nursing students graduating every year and only 1.25% of them are able to land the right job, others have to be a volunteer first in order to find a good nursing job which is the most frustrating part. Changing a career path is not a betrayal to your profession because you are only finding a good way to start a good life which also gives you an opportunity for self-growth and/or career advancement.

So true. If I wait until a new slot as a staff nurse that would take years. I don't mind it at all that I am working as crew or whatever position as long as I can be able to survive in my daily needs.. Anyway thank you so much, I appreciate it.

Just ignore them. They are not paying your bills so they have no right to talk. At least you have a job. Any job is better than no job. It sounds like you are a motivated person. I think you will do well. Good luck!

It's not a bad job at all. It's better than robbing and stealing and doing nothing at all. It's hard to look for a job these days so we should not care what others may say. I am a nurse and have not been practicing my profession for 4 years. I never mind what others have said, since I know I am working a good job and earning rather than talk about other peoples lives.
