to nursing school. Failed that miserably. Not my thing. You as a I was like, I'm a combat medic. That'll be close to nursing. That'll be similar. It's not. That actually. Yeah, that'll be. No, it isn't. No? No. I thought I was real good at giving IVs. I didn't realise I was trying to give IVs to 20 to 30 year old men that were in reasonably good shape. And I didn't have to go through four inches of fat to find a fucking vein. You know what? It's just harder. Everything sucks. It's not a good time. Wasn't for me.
