What are the pros and cons of working as an RN (Registered Nurse)?

I'm thinking about taking this up as a career. If you are an RN, what do you think of it?

Cons- hours, working with sick patients, on your feet most of the time, high liability for patient care....

Pros- hours, always looking for RN's, can go pretty much anywhere for job, get to help patients.

If you like to help and be challenged, you are making a good decision.

Good Luck.

alot of ppl could get mad at you im a LPN and RN usually are not liked because of there level and control over others
