My hours are 5pm-8am M-F(15hours on call per night) That would make it $15/hour. I've been doing this for almost 10years now. However, 4 years ago our census started rising. That makes it a full night of calls etc. Our census has doubled to appox 170pts. and the voicemail alone takes 2-3hours to transcribe. I've asked several times for more money or less hours but they just say, your salary and this is the way it is.
