It depends on where in Florida. Some areas less so.

I don't work at Yale-New Haven, but the latest ad for their float pool pays up to a $12,000 bonus, up to $46 something/hour, plus up to $6 something differentials. Any hours, any shifts, half shifts, etc. I don't want to make this commute, but I believe they are on to something -- solid pay. Cost of living in the area is very high.

How many times a day do we save lives and save doctors a$$e$ from being sued. Junk men in my area make more money. Oh, if I could only stand the cold.
