Nursing seems really interesting to me I have a BA in history and have mostly worked a bunch of unfulfilling jobs since graduation. Nursing seems interesting, and I'm in the process of applying to several local schools. Pre-reqs aren't too bad for someone who already has a bachelors; I've just got to knock out 2 semesters of A&P and microbio and I'm good to go. I'm curious what the work environment's like for guys, mainly. Especially more ah...traditionally male guys. I'm 6'1" 200 lbs and I have a shaved head and a bunch of tattoos , am I going to be judged negatively for this in interviews or have trouble fitting into a female dominated workplace? I'm also interested in Neonatal nursing as a career goal, is this an uncommon specialty for men?

Mr Tweeze posted:There are a few guys that work in neonatal nursing, my OB teacher was the only male nursing teacher I had actually so I don't think its uncommon, he worked in the NICU at one of the area hospitals. I don't think having tattoos or a shaved head is really a big deal its a profession that has a ton of jobs so if you are competent that's really all that matters. Cool. I've gotten poo poo for it in a few office job interviews; I was hoping nursing wasn't the same way.
