He's counting the 'freelance work' she'll be doing 'under the
table'.

38, this is her second career. Her starting salary for a 3
shift
week
is 72K.

Bull****! My wife had to reach management level when she
was
working in a hospital before she hit those kinds of numbers.
Don't
bother telling us your wife works at such and such or that she
negotiated that number or she has special talents or any other
pile of
crap. Your story is crap and your busted.
Nurses are treated like teachers in this country. Employers
know
that they are dedicated type people and they take advantage of
that
fact by underpaying them and screwing them on retirement plans,
vacation time etc. My wife got out and is now on the
road/working out
of a home office for an insurance company dealing with lawyers,
doctors
and deadbeats like you who want to collect workmans comp.

Your wife is entry level. Why does she make 50% more than someone with
10
years experience?


Wanna make a bet? 68K per year for night shift, 36 hours per week,
plus loan forgiveness program and bonus = 72K

Bob, nice try. Loan forgiveness is taxed as ordinary income, but if
you
had
an inkling of financial savvy, you could deduct the cost of education
as
an
expense.

That bonus is small. Most signing bonuses I know of are about 10K for
nurses.

What hospital is she working at?

Monster has job listings for experienced OR nurses at 80K$ in
Westchester
County. So they're paying entry level nurses more than nurses who have
been
on the staff 5 years or more? Why don't they just rehire experienced
nurses
who left the field because the pay was too low when they left?

You lie!

It's easy to prove too!

Amen!

Congrats to her. I managed to squeeze in 20 years with a local hospital
doing mechanical work. I got to be the proverbial "fly on the wall" and now
I don't begrudge good nurses whatever they make.
BTW - I once had to babysit a 650 pound corpse on the midnight shift in a
morgue. I drew short straw, and had the ghastly duty of keeping the body
packed in ice because it wouldn't fit in a drawer and no one would
claim/take it. Technically, I didn't get laid in a morgue, but I did feel
f***ed.

She certainly works hard and the nigbt shifts have their own
complications. Interestingly, all Manhattan hospitals pay around 5 or
6K less. A clinic in the Hamptons is paying a one her classmates 76K,
but that's too far away for her.

Many of my hours there were overnighters. The graveyard shift is a special
bunch with a whole different feel. The camaraderie runs deeper, and everyone
seems to have a better grasp of the team concept, especially between
departments (e.g., between security, engineering, and the ER staff). One
night, for instance, a couple of drunk bikers came into the ER. I had been
demolishing some O2 lines in the area; work that had to be done overnight.
One guy was (superficially) injured and for some reason, his friend got
rowdy, and decided to sucker punch a security guard who was a good friend of
mine, I didn't think twice about swinging a 24" aluminum pipe wrench across
the back of his legs. I didn't want to kill or even seriously hurt him, but
I did want him on the floor while the RNs radioed for security and police
backup . He actually apologized and thanked me after he sobered up, with no
broken bones and only a nifty looking bruise across one hamstring, he
realized I could have removed his head with the same swing.
I think, with less people on the clock, those who are on realize how much
more they depend on each other.
