Scope Creep

A perverse and immoral campaign by NPs (Non-Physicians) and nurse anesthetist midlevels trying to undercut actual doctors from patient care. They attended online nursing school and have a license in nursing but somehow think they're qualified to practice medicine. This is an obvious attempt at validation after failing to make it into med school.
CRNA: "My nursing license I achieved online tells me all the time I'm just as good as an anesthesiologist"
NP: "After I cheat on this online exam, I'll perpetuate some scope creep on my blog"

Nursing School

4 years but the first year is spent taking watered-down science classes to get a 2.75GPA. Upon entrance to the program, clinicals are spent dispensing vitamins and fluffing pillows.
Nursing Student: I'm so glad I only need to get a 2.75 to get in nursing school, I think I'll stop going to class.
