People being pressured into or wanting additional overtime hours 100% makes sense.
I still think this was more of a result of some error as opposed to a super human nurse working insane hours with virtually no life.
The nurses and Dr's who make very high incomes while also working very hard, long and challenging hours is a different conversation. I can see a lot of younger nurses in their 20"s who are just really focused on work, their career, little time for the BS being the ones who make $150k-250k.
Considering this is a hockey forum, there is something to be said about the small segment of young people who are 100% focused in achieving this. The NHL #1 picks like Crosby, McDavid, Mackinnon etc are what separate them from others. Just being focused on the task at hand and not getting caught up in the pitfalls of youth can lead to very large payday's later. Obv not a direct comparison but I still think the $500k nurse was more of an error. Could be a Nurse Practitioner with a much higher pay to start as well as opposed to an RN working like a madperson as well.

NPs aren't in the union so they get far less opportunities for OT than an RN.
