  1.  @ninitch42  : When the majority of Filipino nurses, were allowed into the country, and gain citizenship. It is from the State/Government that you would stay until you retire... and not to run off, in the middle of your working life. THAT is what people are annoyed about. Cos even if you start off low, the ladder works itself out.. it goes UPWARDS... you would get promoted. A lot of people who did the 40 years of working life, does it. And then they save for their children as well... It is rare to have such a permanent job. Alas, you only see the money sign and not the long road.. but you want the short cuts. This is also normal.... cos I've done that too when I was younger, I burn out by the time I am in my middle of my 20s. I kind of needed a break. This is why, you need to pace yourself. A lot of people, does not also ask for help either.. when they are too stressed from the work. Nurses's HR support, also might not exists as well. If you were very local... Many nurses, rather than a desk job, or a side way move, to reduce the work load first. Or some people, go onto the rota schemes and does part time instead.... (which works out, a LOT better mentally and emotionally for themselves as well).... I hope you would change your mind... and consider what we said. A lot of nurses, have indeed taken side moves.... but stays in the NHS as well. Some people does some basic researches. Whatever it may be... I just hope that you may change your mind at some point. Many people are very qualified individuals as well... A chef could be a doctor in another country, here in the UK. Or a mechanical engineer, when British Steel was nationally owned, but now they work in most administrative/managerial roles. I know one STEM... she went into customer services... (but of a scientific company).... And because she didn't see it another way, after my talk, she got promoted within 4 years into Customer Service's Manager. See ???.. It is possible. And in those years, she quickly had kids asap.
