In a recent viral video, a nursing student complains that the program for which she pays $40,000 in yearly tuition gave students a piece of bubble wrap to pop for nurse appreciation week.
In a TikTok posted last week, nursing student Azia (@iamdenae) says that for nurse appreciation week, which took place May 6 to May 12, her school gave students a piece of bubble wrap to pop for “stress relief.”
“How the nursing program I’m paying $40,000 and [losing] my sanity for showed their appreciation for nurses week,” Azia wrote in the overlay text of her video, which shows the bubble wrap. The directions on the bubble wrap state “pop three stress relief bubbles whenever necessary” and “repeat as needed.”
In her caption, Azia confirms she popped the bubble wrap. On Wednesday, Azia’s video had over a million views.
