You know this already, but the variety of jobs you can do with that RN is insane. If you don't like the type of nursing your doing, switch to a different one. Look to admin, informatics, etc if you're wanting more of an office job vs patient care.

Consider the direction the medical field is going, too: boomers are finally starting to retire, and as they phase deeper into the geriatric stage of life, they're going to need more and more care. This means the supply end of nursing is going to turn down a notch, and the demand end is going to absolutely explode. If you're sitting on a ton of experience, you've got some fucking PRIME wage negotiation potential - I'd flex that before bailing.
