Re: Do you think you are adequately compensated in your job as a nurse?
In most cases, nurses are most definitely NOT paid at a rate anywhere near where they should be.
BIG HOWEVER HERE: Considering the economy today, and not knowing what the future holds, a nurse will ALWAYS be needed in the job market. Whether or not there is a recession, or depression, a nurse will always be able to find work that pays a living wage. Not necessarily true for the machinist, beautician, gardener, waitress, etc...
As a profession, there is always security in knowing you will be needed.
