nursing jobs for wife right out of nursing school

[retrvrman]

Howdy all,My wife will graduate nursing school here in Colorado Springs, CO at PPCC next May. She has told me that she doesn't want to work in the Springs because they don't pay nurses right out of school very well. I have asked her if she has looked up in Denver and she hasn't. I am also in the USAF active duty and I don't retire until Dec 09. After that I have told her I would move anywhere she wants to work. So I am being proactive and trying to find out from anyone that can help me where is the best place to go to find out about nursing jobs in Denver for nurses right out of school? Also, what is the pay scale like there? She has been thinking about going to Phoenix, AZ area because she has family there to work right out of school. Is that a better area than Denver? The thing is we also have three kids, my USAF committment, so she would be living with family and I would be here with the kids. I am trying to get all the info I can together so that I can show her that she doesn't have to leave right after school to work and to just wait three years for me to retire....thanks,

I've been reading this post from the begiinning and that's when he made mention of his addiction.

In reference to someone talking about this man discussing private marriage business on here... This probably is just me, but I think it's a little weird two men have recently come to this forum to do just that. (The last one was about his wife's drug addiction and her stealing meds.) Is it just that people find nurses easy to talk to, or what? I mean, I think it's really cool people feel they can open up a bit in here under psuedo-anonimity and we can all offer our advice and opinions. It seems weird, though, to have two men who are so open about their problems in such a short period of time, both who seem to be receiving the short end of the marriage stick. (I'm sure if their wives posted, they'd appear to be on the other short end of the stick! It's that old "perspective" problem.)

I haven't been around this board long enough to know. Is this a common occurence?

:yeahthat: I agree with you KScott, it does seem a little weird that we have had two males share their marriages on this board. I personally would be very upset if my husband were to do this. It is very hard to know what actually is going on in this marraige, since there are two sides to every story.

A lot of people find it easier to tell complete strangers their problems because they don't want anyone they know to know about their problems. So that is why they come here lol!

And I think we have adequately addressed this poster's issue. After he deleted so much of the original post, this thread is too confusing to even follow. Good luck to the OP and thanks everyone for your great advice.
