for some reason i think this begs for a parody post where OP gets caught fapping and then has to help people do it.

I make more $ as a staff nurse, if you get promoted you have to accept a salaried position at a massive pay cut.
Nursing sucks to be in administration or teach.

truth there. Administration, your job is to simply screw over your old friends on the staff, messing with the shifts, hours, whatever the upper management asks you to do to cut costs. Not only at your former co-workers expense, but at the expense of good patient care. My mom did not survive that transition, she cared about both her staff and the patients too much.

And I busted a nut at work
If your co-workers are required to perform IV, then you may want to aid them in the learning process. But how do they get into such a position with such a requirement if they don't know (at least well enough) how to perform the procedure?
But generally speaking, I hear you though, the more you know the more you get piled onto you. You're like the designated person for that duty til death do you part.

Well hopefully when evaluations come around you will get noticed for the extra work.

I've been at current job for >2 years after years in ICU & a decade + in ER.
Am in the PACU (recovery room) and one of the things we rarely ( like once or twice a year) is start IV's.
Last week we started rotating a bit & helping in the pre op part of the dept, and one of the big skills is starting IV's, and I intentionally kept my mouth shut about my mad IV skilz, so folks wouldn't pester me to help.
4 hours into my first rotation my co workers figured out what I've done for the last couple of years.
I've started over a dozen "problem" IV's for them this week already...

I am up in the "many thousand" area too. (~40 calls per week, half get IV's, 8 years) The left handed across the other side of the gurney are fun, and so are the EJ's. Heck, there's been hundreds that even get two 14g IV's for major trauma or strokes. (16g for the strokes, bi-lateral A/C, nurses love it when you roll in and they are already set up for antithrombolytic therapy if needed.)
I don't know why you don't want to do them, hell, pretty soon you'll be tubing 'em too. "Reliable Pliable"
