First off, welcome to our community!

Tbh, I don't have snow tires. Last year I had to get a new car - not entirely new, but in great condition - and it has "all-year tires". In Germany, those need to have "Alpine certification" (? or something along those lines) indicated by a snowflake symbol imprinted on the tires. They aren't bad, but not as great as real new winter tires with a deep profile. My plan is to get some of these this year, when I can afford it thanks to the new job.

Thanks! "Stressful but possibly very rewarding" could be applied to nursing in general. It's still the best job for me personally and the hospital setting feels more right for me. Now I only need to improve my skills and expand my knowledge, which is actually a fun challenge for me. I like learning new things.
