I have accepted a job at Vidant Medical Center in the surgical oncology unit to start on February 19th. I am wondering if I could get help with suggestions for apartments. Ones that I have liked are Waterford Place, Pointe at Wimbledon, and Treybrooke apartments. Does anyone have suggestions about other apartments or on the ones listed above? Any help would be much appreciated as I am moving from Minnesota and know nothing about the area.
I'm not sure what you mean by holidays are a part of PTO. If you work one of the recognized holidays you get holiday pay (time and a half). If you don't work on a holiday you don't get paid for that day. For holidays at Vidant you are required to work two of the four major holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Years Day) every year. You can also not take PTO the week of a major holiday.
As far as cost of living, I have a 2 bedroom apartment (live alone plus a dog) with amentities (pool, gym, dog parks) and live comfortably on my salary. I know COL is not as high here compared to Northern States (in MN where I'm originally from nurses make 30+/hour, but housing is more expensive)

Thanks for sharing!
Are holidays part of PTO?
For my area’s COL that hourly rate is crazy low but is it enough for a middle class lifestyle in greenville?
