A netizen shared how a guy shared his bigoted views about nursing and relentlessly mocked NUS nursing students.
The guy said:
“Nursing need degree meh?”
“I have a friend in nursing, I always ask him why he like to clean old people’s sh*t.”
You can read the netizen’s full post below:
“Guy with superiority complex and no EQ i met at work kept mocking nus nursing was working part time and a guy i met for the FIRST TIME introduced himself as a republic poly student studying business.
After learning that I’m studying nursing in nus he proceeded to insult me incessantly even after I expressed discomfort. “nursing need degree meh” “i have a friend in nursing I always ask him why he like to clean old people’s shit”. These were some of the insults.
I took offence and walked out since I knew there was no point educating a bigot. I wish there was more awareness on nus nursing.
We have stellar students enrolled here and the job scope of a nurse spreads well beyond cleaning people’s faeces.
The career offers clinical, management, research and informatics track.
The starting pay of degree holders in nursing is 3.5k-4k not including bonus.
We didn’t study hard, got good grades just to choose a course that only “cleans old peoples shit”.
I guess his insults really show how much he needed to put others down to feel good about himself.”
