I am a CNA. I work in a major regional hospital in the western United States. Not gonna give any specifics other than that. I just started about 2 weeks ago.

I wanted to give a little background experience on myself. I started in a convalescent hospital 5 years ago. I took a job as an endoscopy technician 4 years ago, and moved to Nevada from California. I worked in a surgical room alongside doctors for 2 and a half years. Around 6 months ago, I took a job in home health care to work around my school schedule in taking a microbiology class. I am finished with all my pre-requisites, and am applying for nursing school in February.

Now I will speak about my current job. I am being trained by a pretty, blue-eyed, blonde. She is in her early twenties, and just had a child about a year ago. We will call her Valerie. Valerie is smart, hard-working, and good looking, but guess what? She is covered in tattoos and piercings. She is also a dike.

The first night I work with her, she proceeds to show her fellow hollow-minded female, her tik-tok video. She was impressed with herself that she had gotten over 10,000 views. Now let me say, the other nurses aren't involved in her making a video. Everyone else is working. I doubt they even knew she made the video. And from what I have seen, everyone stays very busy on my floor (neurosciences).

I really wanted to walk into this hospital and have a different opinion of the negative stereotypes on nurses, and to an extent I did. But all of the inherent stereotypes were glaringly obvious with Valerie. I want to put this out there; just because you are smart, does not mean you have any common sense. In further elaboration, we have a perfect example of a woman (Valerie) who is basically tarnishing the image of mostly hard working people.

I find a small proportion of women are the problem in this country. And the weak men who will not control them are the fuel to their inferno of stupidity. I am sure if people like Valerie had a male to smack the piss out of them, that they wouldn't do dumb things like making tik-tok videos, munching muff, and covering their bodies in tattoos and piercings. This is just my personal opinion, and if you don't agree, feel free to call me out.
