Nursing is too unpleasant, involves having to clean people up and feed them and stand up all day. I prefer white collar type professions where you have to use your brain and not do physical labor.

A degree nurse is not physical labor:
There are several levels of education, certification and specialization within the field of nursing. Nursing care is delivered by a range of providers including Registered Nurses (RN), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN), and Nursing Assistants (NA). Registered nurses (RNs) must graduate from a state-approved school of nursing and pass a national licensing exam.
With additional education at the graduate level, a Registered Nurse can also practice in four advanced practice nursing roles: Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS), Nurse Practitioner (NP) or Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM). Along with direct patient care, nurses can go into research, teaching, or work in nurse management positions.
