Not quite in Dallas area - actually in San Antonio - but I work for a medical device company and make $23.45/hour with benefits, Mon-Fri, days. But it's a sedentary, in a cubicle wearing a head-set for 8 hours, kind of job.
On average here for LVN's, standard pay is between $19-$22/hour for agency work and nursing homes. Hospitals pay less.
Dallas area pays a few dollars more. If you have experience, I'd look beyond the basic bedside nursing jobs and look at administrative type jobs - especially with insurance and medical device companies. Much better pay and working conditions.

Don't be sad. Go fight for what you feel you're worth.
Northern Shenandoah Valley--$16 to start, $18 with experience, full affordable bennies, M-F with close to banker's hours. My classmates mostly went to LTC and made around $20 to start, working mostly nights. Sometimes it's a matter of picking your poison.
