More like "how do you find a moment to catch your breath and let your brain reset after you worked through your breaks, haven't gotten to use the bathroom, and feel like you're going to punch your patient in the face if they bitch about not getting a hot meal at 11:30pm."
Football players don't run very much, but they spend a lot of time getting slammed by and pinned between refrigerator-sized humans running remarkably fast for their build and amount of padding.
Keep in mind that nursing is a four year bachelor's degree. There are other options, but the four year degree is most common in the US. That means many nurses chose their profession when they were just out of high school. Nursing being a stable, well paid, and highly in demand career is something that everyone hears about. Blaming nurses for taking that to heart and pursuing it as a career is questionable at best.
I know plenty of older nurses that have just gotten their degrees, but yeah, 18 year olds are dumb and making that huge of a decision that young is prolly a bad idea
