Abstrakt: The COVID-19 crisis shone a spotlight on long-standing issues in the nursing profession. Currently, nurses feel overworked, unsupported, and undervalued. This interpretive phenomenological study shares the perspectives of 10 seasoned nurses. The overarching theme is "My job doesn't love me back," supported by "Enough pizza already," "Band-Aid on a hemorrhage," "We were heroes and now no one remembers us," "We used to be so trusted," and "Nursing is psychological warfare." It is imperative that systems and leaders listen to the concerns of nurses and provide avenues for nurses to take action to collaborate and convene organizational culture change.
