if you are a nurse or know nurses, do you / they feel sore after each shift? (linux.community)

a normal shift to me means not having a 30 minute pause, but being constantly moving. If you are lucky, you can pause for 3 minutes and drink coffee or juice when nobody is looking.

I finish every shift with sore muscles. Am I the only one?

anyone working 8 hours on their feet, even with a lunch break, is gonna be sore. presumably, you're pulling 12 hour or longer shifts. i am not a nurse, nor do i have one handy to ask for you, but it would be unrealistic to expect to not be sore after that.
