    Getting paid with PTO is not a perk. It is your employer forcing you to take your hard earned vacation for their financial benefit, not for your rest and relaxation as it is intended, and for which it is earned.

    Wow my hospital has the complete opposite problem in terms of being on call. We are ALWAYS short handed so if anyone wants to move to NY I am sure you'll get a job in a New York minute...full time with benefits and you will NEVER have to be on all, I don't think where I work knows the meaning of on call.

    Commuter, I am north of Dallas, near the Texoma area. I work in Sherman, live 15 miles north of Melissa. We came here for a grandchild.

    I love LTC too, and missed it when I started working psych. So I got a per diem job so I have the best of both worlds. We don't get called off on the night shift in the hospital, the other shifts do though.
